Abstract

The purpose of the ERC Project 'The Latin Talmud and Its Influence on Christian-Jewish Polemic' (LATTAL) is to edit and publish the largest extant collection of Talmudic passages translated from Hebrew into Latin, known as Extractiones de Talmud, which were prepared in Paris during the years 1244-1245, while studying this ground-breaking document in the context of the trial and burning of the Talmud in 1240-1242 and its aftermath. In the second session, our papers will focus on three topics regarding the Talmud and its historical and philological medieval environment, such as the literary genre of the Extractiones (Ó. De la Cruz); the Hebrew sources and Latin tradition of the Latin Talmud (A. González and I. Lampurlanés) and the use of the Talmud for polemical purposes in the Extractiones and Pugio Fidei (H. J. Hames). The LATTAL Project is funded by the European Research Council under the European Union’s Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013) / ERC Grant agreement no. 613694.
