The Tiberian Pronunciation Tradition of Biblical Hebrew, Volume 2

Více o knize

The book explores the evolution of Biblical Hebrew, tracing its vocalization and accent systems back to medieval manuscripts and the work of Tiberian Masoretes during the early Islamic period. It highlights the oral traditions that predate these systems and examines how modern grammatical textbooks are influenced by centuries of European scholarship. A key paradox discussed is the lack of direct access that this European tradition had to the authentic pronunciations established by the Tiberian scholars.
