Tablet to Tablet: The History of Jewish Books
Hosted By: Haberman Institute
The Haberman Institute will explore the evolution of Jewish texts, tracing their journey from the oral traditions of early rabbis through the inky printing houses of Renaissance Italy and Central Europe, to modern digital formats. This exploration will examine how the material form of these texts—from orally transmitted stories to digitally displayed scriptures—impacts their content and interpretation. Participants will engage in discussions about the implications of studying sacred texts that have transitioned from hand-copied manuscripts to screens, reflecting on the Jewish people’s long-standing and evolving relationship with their texts.
