An exploration of the theoretical underpinnings of the philological method of Jewish Bible interpretation known as peshat Within the rich tradition of Jewish biblical interpretation, few concepts are as vital as peshat, often rendered as the "plain sense" of Scripture. Generally contrasted with midrash—the creative and at times fanciful mode of reading put forth by the rabbis of Late Antiquity—peshat came to connote the systematic, philological-contextual, and historically sensitive analysis of the Hebrew Bible, coupled with an appreciation of the text's literary quality. In The Rule of "Peshat," Mordechai Z. Cohen explores the historical, geographical, and theoretical underpinnings of peshat as it emerged between 900 and 1270. Adopting a comparative approach that explores Jewish interactions with Muslim and Christian learning, Cohen sheds new light on the key turns in the vibrant medieval tradition of Jewish Bible interpretation. Beginning in the tenth century, Jews in the Middle East drew upon Arabic linguistics and Qur'anic study to open new avenues of philological-literary exegesis. This Judeo-Arabic school later moved westward, flourishing in al-Andalus in the eleventh century. At the same time, a revolutionary peshat school was pioneered in northern France by the Ashkenazic scholar Rashi and his circle of students, whose methods are illuminated by contemporaneous trends in Latinate learning in the Cathedral Schools of France. Cohen goes on to explore the heretofore little-known Byzantine Jewish exegetical tradition, basing his examination on recently discovered eleventh-century commentaries and their offshoots in southern Italy in the twelfth century. Lastly, this study focuses on three pivotal figures who represent the culmination of the medieval Jewish exegetical tradition: Abraham Ibn Ezra, Moses Maimonides, and Moses Nahmanides. Cohen weaves together disparate Jewish disciplines and external cultural influences through chapters that trace the increasing force acquired by the peshat model until it could be characterized, finally, as the "rule of peshat": the central, defining feature of Jewish hermeneutics into the modern period.

These two volumes are about the forty-five surviving manuscripts and fragments that transmit, and sometimes illustrate, the texts of Chrétien de Troyes. Here is presented, for the first time, a photographic corpus of those manuscripts that is as complete as possible and includes all the illustrations of the illustrated manuscripts, organized according to a new interpretation of their chronology and distribution. This visual material is complemented by a catalogue of all the extant manuscripts and their illustrations and by a series of analytical essays on aspects of the codicology, palaeography, the history of style and iconography, and the history of textual transmission of the manuscripts. The 24 colour and 435 black/white plates and figures include at least one reproduction of every manuscript and fragment, with the unfortunate exception of the fragments that have been lost since their texts were edited and of which no photograph has been preserved. The collaboration of literary scholars with art historians, codicologists, and palaeographers make this enterprise a new departure in manuscript and text studies: many of the essays are also illustrated.

The Making of the Historia scholastica, 1150 1200' is without a doubt a seminal study of the first importance for the study of the history of medieval theology, and especially for the making in the mid-to-late twelfth century of one of the most influential books produced at that time. The Scholastic History of Peter Comestor is an encyclopaedic outline of the contents of the Bible presented from a historical point of view; it was destined to enjoy a phenomenal success for centuries to come. Mark Clark shows Comestor at work as a historian with a profound knowledge of previous scholarship, a masterful commentator on the literal sense of the stories found in Scripture, and a teacher in Paris whose colleagues included Peter Lombard and Stephen Langton. 0David Luscombe - The University of Sheffield.

Manuscripts, Market and the Transition to Print in Late Medieval Brittany surveys the production and marketing of non-monastic manuscripts and printed books over 150 years in late medieval Brittany, from the accession of the Montfort family to the ducal crown in 1364 to the duchy's formal assimilation by France in 1532. Brittany, as elsewhere, experienced the shift of manuscript production from monasteries to lay scriptoria and from rural settings to urban centers, as the motivation for copying the word in ink on parchment evolved from divine meditation to personal profit. Through her analysis of the physical aspects of Breton manuscripts and books, parchment and paper, textual layouts, scripts and typography, illumination and illustration, Diane Booton exposes previously unexplored connections between the tangible cultural artifacts and the society that produced, acquired and valued them. Innovatively, Booton's discussion incorporates archival research into the prices, wages and commissions associated with the manufacture of the works under discussion to shed new light on their economic and personal value.

This powerful and breathtakingly beautiful Book of Hours was designed in the fifteenth century by one of the greatest masters of expressionism in France at the time, and executed by him (together with members of his workshop) for a royal patron. A relatively unknown masterpiece, it emerged from artistic obscurity in 1904 to widespread acclaim and critical appreciation. As Millard Meiss points out in his Introduction: "The Rohan Master cared less about what people do than what they feel. . . .Whereas his great predecessors, the Boucicaut Master and the Limbourgs, excelled in the description of novel aspects of the natural world, he explored the realm of human feeling". And, in his explorations, the Rohan Master disclosed a way of viewing and visually depicting reality (replete with familiar biblical figures, saints, angels, devils) and the emotions of simple men and women - suffering, elation, fear, melancholy, and hope - in a manner that is both original and powerfully moving. From the first folio of this remarkable and often startling manuscript to the final plate, the entire range of human emotions is compassionately but uncompromisingly explored. Named after the Rohan family, whose arms appear in this manuscript, this distinctive artist earned himself a place as one of the greatest manuscript illuminators of the early Renaissance.

"Through a unique correlation of contemporary documents and architectural analysis, Stephen Murray provides a rich and unusual history of the building of the late Gothic cathedral at Troyes. From what sources were the funds obtained? How were decisions made about construction methods and style? What problems did the builders face and how were they solved? To what extent did individual stone carvers leave their imprint? Murray's narrative is based on thorough study of the fabric, or building, accounts kept by the cathedral for more than 250 years, actual records of receipts and expenses - from whom money was obtained, to whom it was paid, and for what purposes. Part One traces the progress of the building from the early thirteenth through the mid-sixteenth century, highlighting the contributions of individual master masons. Part Two provides written and visual records. A substantial selection of texts from the fabric accounts, chronologically arranged, is given both in the original language and in English translation; these rare documents furnish a wealth of information relating to the identity and skills of the artisans, the definition of the work at hand, and the techniques of construction. A series of charts analyzes the state of fabric fund and the composition of the workshop at critical stages in the construction process. Readers can follow the development of the cathedral by relating the text to the 120 detailed architectural drawings and photographs included." --

Troyes, Champagne, Winter 1082 During a hunting party, Godfrey of Bouillon, a young knight, is found seriously injured in the woods around Troyes and finds shelter and care to a great Jewish thinker of the time, director of Talmudic academy, Master Solomon of Troyes, Rashi says. There, during his convalescence he will be surprised by the discovery of a strange and mysterious world, and especially, fall in love with the beautiful Missiya, adopted daughter of Rashi. His fellow students are both noble sons of Christians in the region, but also the sons of the greatest Jewish sages of the time. Some of them are new to the Kabbala and eventually became the founders of the Knights Templar; that permits to better understand the true origin of the rites Freemasons. Suddenly everything changed in spring 1096, before the wave of the Crusade of beggars, which will decimate the Jewish communities of eastern France and the Rhine during the first "pogroms" mass. From there, Godfrey leading the First Crusade Chrestien, is surrounded by some of Troyes, Hugh, Missiya and Pagans. A breathtaking panorama, which originates in the town of Troyes in Champagne lingers in the castle of Bouillon, through the Rhine Valley before starting a tour of this medieval world traversed by the wave of the Crusades: Hungary Byzantium, Turkey to the Caspian, in the fabulous and mysterious Jewish kingdom of Khazars, Jerusalem in search of lost tribes, the mysterious biblical Ethiopia to sands of the Sahara desert ... Where we are witnessing the birth of the most secret order of history by revealing the identity of a mysterious eleventh Templar. And where it is decrypted, in fraternity painfully trampled in the religions of the Book, the great secret of the Ark of the Covenant, to resolve the ultimate mystical quest, exciting, the Grail ...
