VELTRI, GIUSEPPE (ed..) - Gegenwart Der Tradition: Studien Zur Judischen Literatur Und Kulturgeschichte (Supplementss to the Journal for the Study of Judaism vol. 69)

Leiden - New York, Brill, 2002. xxviii, 320 pp. Fine copy. Hardcover with dustjacket. Text is in German. In this collection of articles, written over a decade of research, the author explores the fascinating worlds of Jewish literature and cultural history, mainly focussing on various aspects of Jewish hermeneutics of Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages. The interpretation of the past is the main activity of the rabbinic school. Not only the old translations of the Bible, but also the Jewish approach to magic show the endeavour to conciliate the requirements of the present with the tradition and to give a new meaning to the revered texts and concepts of the past.
