Rabbinische Literatur

Rabbinical literature forms the second canon of Judaism: Mishnah and Talmud, which were written in Palestine and Mesopotamia between 200 and 800 CE. The basis of thesetexts is the Hebrew Bible. Rabbinical literature often refers to both biblical women and biblical concepts of gender. Drawing on the latest research findings, the contributions inthis volume examine how biblical women have been represented, edited, and seen anew in this extensive body of literature.
