Philology and Source Criticism in the Study of Talmudic Literature: Yesterday

Mon, December 17, 8:30 to 10:00am, Seaport Hotel & World Trade Center, Federal 1 Complex

Abstract

Philological and source critical analysis of talmudic literature has been a hallmark of the field since its early beginnings in the late nineteenth century. In this lecture I examine the application of these methods among scholars of talmudic literature of the last two generations, the background leading to their studies, and the impact of their work on the field.
