This is an encomium on the title page of a book, dedicated to R. Solomon J. L. Rapoport, whom it dubs Rabbi Azaryahu, Enlightener of Eyes, the Second (Enlightener of Eyes, of course, being a reference to the first's Sefer Me'or Enayim).
Let's also not forget Moreh Nevuchei Hazman from Krochmal.
I should have said 2 Meor Enyaims..but really there is a third I can think of, but the third-authored by R' Nachum of Chernobyl- is far from the others ideologically.
Actually, there are -- at least! --five Kuzaris. In addition to the three listed by chardal, see Mordecai Dickman, Derekh Shalom: Kuzari Shelishi; and James Kugel (yes, that Kugel), On Being a Jew: An American Kuzari.
Huh?

There are also three Binyamin the Travelers (although the third is only a fictional character -- created by Mendele Mocher Seforim).
ReplyDeleteAnd the newly published "Lenvuchei hazman" from R' Kook.
ReplyDeleteBack in my day, the student guide at YU was called that too.
