Texts in Transit in the Medieval Mediterranean
Autor Y. Tzvi Langermann, Robert G. Morrisonen Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 iul 2016
Transit and transformation give texts new subtexts and contexts, and they provide windows through which to study how memory, encryption, oral communication, cultural and religious values, and knowledge traveled and were shared, transformed, and preserved. Through careful consideration of these works and the evidence of their travel that remains in the written record, this volume broadens how we think about texts, communication, and knowledge in the medieval world.
Aside from the editors, the contributors are Mushegh Asatryan, Brian Becker, Leonardo Capezzone, Leigh Chipman, Ofer Elior, Zohar Hadromi-Allouche, Harun Kucuk, Israel M. Sandman, and Tamas Visi."
