Jewish Languages and Book Culture by Judith Olszowy-Schlanger

A collection of essays examining the spread of books in Jewish vernacular languages and Hebrew characters, offering an extraordinary insight into the linguistic richness of Jewish life.

'This book offers an engrossing look at several Jewish languages, whose oldest manuscripts are mostly held at the Bodleian LibraryThe book is extremely well illustrated and documented, making it both interesting and authoritative to read.'
