Vocalised Talmudic Manuscripts in the Cambridge Genizah Collections
Professor Morag presents the results of a painstaking investigation of significant linguistic and textual aspects of 165 medieval manuscripts in the 'Old Series' of the famous Taylor-Schechter Collection. The vocalisation found in these manuscripts exhibits signs and forms characteristic of the Tiberian, Babylonian ('simple' as well as 'complex') and Palestino-Tiberian systems and sheds important light on the grammatical structure and meaning of the words in which it occurs. This pioneering study includes detailed descriptions of the manuscripts containing the vocalisation and eleven plates that illustrate the author's classification of the material.
