‘Hebrew Philosophical Manuscripts as Sites of Engagement’ (HEPMASITE) is a five-year research project (2022-2027) headed by Dr Yoav Meyrav of the Institute of Jewish Philosophy and Religion at Universität Hamburg.

HEPMASITE tackles the corpus of medieval Hebrew philosophical manuscripts in order to unravel the hidden history of Jewish philosophy enveloped within them. It aims to reconceptualise the understanding of Jewish philosophy as it took place in the real world and as it was studied by actual people.
