He follows in the tradition of scholars such as Christopher de Hamel, Marvin J. Heller, and David Stern, who have explored the importance of these Hebrew books in influencing Jewish learning and attracting the interest of Christians. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe author discusses important prints, such as the first Talmud and rabbinical bibles, which marked a shift from being for Jewish readers only to being for both Jews and Christians. The collaboration between Jewish editors and Christian printers changed the way these books looked and the audience for whom they were intended. At first, these early prints copied the style of handwritten Hebrew manuscripts. The simple layout could be difficult to read, especially for long books like the Bible or Talmud. But over time, influenced by the humanism of the Italian Renaissance, the layout became more complex. The book also looks at how the layout changed from full-page commentaries to a more complicated design in which the main text and commentaries shared the same page. This shift challenged the idea of who was the primary author and emphasized the role of editors. The layout, with the main text in the center and the commentaries on the sides, created a kind of unwritten rule for how to read religious texts. Dal Bo's study also includes new information about a 1553 trial in which the Talmud was burned. Overall, it explores how the layout of these early Hebrew books shaped cultural power and influenced how people read. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51060662108433,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51060664566033,"sku":"NIN9783111392684","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3111392686.jpg?v=1751220938"},{"product_id":"judaism-philosophy-and-psychoanalysis-in-heideggers-ontology-book-federico-dal-bo-9783031440557","title":"Judaism, Philosophy, and Psychoanalysis in Heideggers Ontology","description":"In this book, Federico Dal Bo analyzes the question of Heideggers anti-Semitism from a deconstructive point of view, appealing not only to philosophy but also to psychoanalysis, gender studies, and critical studies.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51062397272337,"sku":"NIN9783031440557","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52129459306769,"sku":"NLS9783031440557","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3031440552.jpg?v=1751415361"},{"product_id":"jesus-in-the-latin-talmud-book-federico-dal-bo-9789004701595","title":"Jesus in the Latin Talmud","description":"Between 1238 and 1239, the notorious Jewish convert Nicholas Donin persuaded Pope Gregory IX to condemn the Talmud, prompting European kings to intervene. Only King Louis IX of France agreed to a public disputation in 1240, subjecting the Talmud to scrutiny. Prominent Jewish and Christian figures debated Jesus in the Talmud. The Talmud was condemned between 1241 and 1242, but the Church of Paris, responding to Jewish pleas, allowed an appeal. Scholars were commissioned to translate portions of the Talmud, resulting in two anthologies titled Extractiones de Talmud--the first translation of this work. Still, this did not save the Talmud from burning.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51388188918033,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51388189212945,"sku":"NIN9789004701595","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52679415857425,"sku":"NLS9789004701595","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9004701591.jpg?v=1768562412"},{"product_id":"judaism-philosophy-and-psychoanalysis-in-heideggers-ontology-book-federico-dal-bo-9783031440588","title":"Judaism, Philosophy, and Psychoanalysis in Heidegger’s Ontology","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn this book, Federico Dal Bo analyzes the question of Heidegger’s anti-Semitism from a deconstructive point of view, appealing not only to philosophy but also to psychoanalysis, gender studies, and critical studies. Deconstruction famously discourages simplistic oppositions whilst encouraging a more careful analysis of cultural and philosophical complexities of a semantic field. In the present case, a deconstructive analysis of Heidegger’s anti-Semitism rejects both a stern condemnation of his oeuvre and a simplistic acquittal from this infamous accusation. It rather suggests that the question of his anti-Semitism shall be examined from the broader perspective—from the end of metaphysics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52418583560465,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52418584281361,"sku":"NGR9783031440588","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783031440588.jpg?v=1785783450"},{"product_id":"deconstructing-the-talmud-book-federico-dal-bo-9780367785444","title":"Deconstructing the Talmud","description":"This monograph uses deconstruction-a philosophical movement originated by Jacques Derrida-to read the most authoritative book in Judaism: the Talmud.

It discusses the Temple and its rituals, especially sacrifices, but deals mostly with laws of incest, sexual transgressions, childbirth, and miscarriages. In this commentary, Federico Dal Bo provides a historical, philological and philosophical investigation on these gender issues. He discusses almost the entire tractate, referring to many other sources, Jewish (the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Sifra, and other rabbinic texts) as well as non-Jewish (Akkadian, Hittite, and Ugaritic). The author also provides accurate philological observations both on the Mishnah and the Gemara. Finally, he addresses gender issues by combining a reductionistic approach to Talmudic study (the so called Brisker method) with philosophical deconstruction. Dal Bo shows that in nearly the entire tractate Keritot the rabbis discuss human sexuality in a tendentious and restrictive way, claiming that heterosexuality is the only proper sexual contact and progressively stigmatizing any other kind of sexual behavior.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52434920571153,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52434921160977,"sku":"NLS9783161526619","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783161526619.jpg?v=1786528141"},{"product_id":"resistible-crisis-of-italian-thought-book-federico-dal-bo-9798855805376","title":"The Resistible Crisis of Italian Thought","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOffers a more complex picture of Roberto Esposito's notion of \"Italian Thought\" in order to examine the persisting crisis of contemporary Italian philosophy.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe present volume intends to offer new insight into Roberto Esposito's seminal notion of \"Italian Thought.\" In Esposito's understanding, Italian Thought would offer an innovative bridge between French and German philosophy.
