Subject: Moses Mendelssohn's Bible exegesis.
Supervisor: Prof. Benjamin Pollock.
Abstract: My doctoral thesis will be focused on the interactions between the two mediums of Moses Mendelssohn's philosophy- the medium of commentary and the systematic medium. The research will be based on the assumption that the medium of commentary is a fruitful source for philosophical Insights. I will ask to propose a harmonistic reading of Mendelssohn's writings, which will be based on the separation between those two mediums. I hope that this separation method will help me to suggest a principle through which Mendelssohn's writing could be understand as one unit.
