"This book is a joint enterprise emerging from Michael Stone's
senior seminar during the years 2003-2005. The seminar was devoted
during those two years to a study of the traditions about a book or
books of Noah and about Noah himself. The subject is enormous, as
will be seen from the chronological and geographical range of the
material assembled here. Two questions were defined that focused
the discussion and, consequently, the material presented in this
book. The first was to assess references to a Noah writing in the
Second Temple period, including segments of existing works that
scholars had in the past attributed to a Noah writing. As a
corollary of this, the traditions of Noah in other Second Temple
period works were studied, first, to gain insight into their
character and, second, to see whether distinct enough traditions
survived in those, often incidental, references to witness to the
existence of a Noachic writing or writings"--Data View.
