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 third session, our papers will focus on three topics regarding the Talmud and the work of medieval Jewish and Christian exegetes: the references to the Talmud in Andrew of St Victor's biblical commentaries (M. Leyra); the biblical Rashi's Glosses on Isaiah in Bibliothèque nationale de France, MS 16.558 (G. Hasselhoff) and the talmudic quotations in Nicholas of Lyra's Postilla literalis. 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.
