Description

For over a century, Provence split between those who banned (& burned) the works of the Rambam, and those who excommunicated their opponents.
Philosophy vs. Kabbala. Rabbeinu Yonah, Nachmanides & the authors of Tosfos all took strong positions - echoes of which continued into the 20th century.
