Harry Austryn Wolfson Pořadí knih
Tento učenec, filozof a historik, který působil na Harvardově univerzitě, je nejvíce oslavován za své zásadní dílo o židovském filozofovi Filonovi. Jeho rozsáhlá tvorba však přesahuje oblast judaistiky a zasahuje do filozofie křesťanské, islámské i západní. Wolfsonova největší zásluha spočívá v boření umělých hranic mezi studiem těchto filozofických tradic. Byl také prvním, kdo se v americké špičkové univerzitě plně věnoval bádání v oblasti judaistiky, čímž naplnil cíle hnutí Wissenschaft des Judentums 19. století.
