Taking account of a wide range of literary evidence and the most
recent scholarship on the nature of education in Rabbinic Judaism
of late antiquity, these studies examine new and varied aspects of
the scriptural and intellectual infrastructure of the educational
ethos, the tension between oral tradition and literary practice,
and the central role of the rabbinic sage as pedagogical innovator
and model. They also study the underlying influence of social and
economic factors, the evolution of teaching techniques and
frameworks, and the formative role of both midrashic mentality and
mythopoetic currents. With an eye on the broader contexts of
Greco-Roman culture and emergent Christianity, these essays follow
the development of rabbinic ideas and institutions from the first
centuries of the Common Era in Palestine through the flowering of
centers of learning centuries later in Babylonia.
