This volume introduces students of rabbinic literature to the
range of historical and interpretative questions surrounding the
rabbinic texts of late antiquity. The editors, themselves
well-known interpreters of Rabbinic literature, have gathered an
international collection of scholars to support students'' initial
steps in confronting the enormous and complex rabbinic corpus.
Unlike other introductions to Rabbinic writings, the present volume
includes approaches shaped by anthropology, gender studies,
oral-traditional studies, classics, and folklore studies.
