This annual on Rabbinic Judaism features principal articles, essays
on method and criticism, systematic debates (Auseinandersetzungen),
occasional notes, long book reviews, reviews of issues of scholarly
journals, assessments of textbooks and instructional materials, and
other media of academic discourse, scholarly and educational alike.
The annual seeks to fill a gap in the study of Judaism, which is
left by the prevailing division of Rabbinic Judaism into the
standard historical periods (ancient, mediaeval, modern) that in
fact do not apply; and by the common treatment of Judaism in bits
and pieces (philosophy, mysticism, law, homiletics and
institutional history, for example), which obscures the fundamental
unity and continuity of Rabbinic Judaism from beginning to the
present. This 2000 edition contains articles by Ithamar Gruenwald,
Dvora Weisberg, Jacob Neusner, Jose Faur, Simcha Fishbane, Norman
Solomon, and Dov Schwartz, as well as reviews by Jacob Neusner,
Herbert W. Basser, and Gunter Stemberger.
