<i>Sefer Tagin</i> Fragments from the Cairo <i>Genizah</i>: A Critical Edition, Commentary and Reconstruction. Cambridge Genizah Studies Series, Volume 12: Études sur le judaïsme médiéval / Cambridge Genizah Studies, cartea 85

Autor Marc Michaels
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 oct 2020
In Sefer Tagin Fragments from the Cairo Genizah, Marc Michaels transcribes and recreates fragments of arguably the earliest found manuscript of the manual for sofrim (scribes) concerning the decorative tagin (tittles) and 'strange' letter forms that adorn certain words in the Torah. Comparing these found fragments against other core and secondary sources of Sefer Tagin (including several pages of a new secondary source), Michaels establishes the most likely readings to assist the reconstruction of the fragments and shed light on the original intention of the author of Sefer Tagin.
