Description:
This volume is the first attempt to critically edit the textual contents of Masoretic notes written in micrographical designs. Within this pioneer work, Élodie Attia focuses on the Masorah of a 13th-century Northern French scribe, Elijah ben Berechiah ha-Naqdan (alive in 1233–1239), and provides new evidence about the transmission of Biblical and Masoretic knowledge in Western Europe and in Ashkenaz.
