Hardback. Zustand: New. Until very recently, the idea of ancient Jewish sciences would have been considered unacceptable. Since the 1990s, Early Modern and Medieval Science in Jewish sources has been actively studied, but the consensus was that no real scientific themes could be found in earlier Judaism. This work points them out in detail and posits a new field of research: the scientific activity evident in the Dead Sea Scrolls and early Jewish pseudepigrapha. The publication of new texts and new analyses of older ones reveals crucial elements that are best illuminated by the history of science, and may have interesting consequences for it. The contributors evaluate these texts in relation to astronomy, astrology, and physiognomy, marking the first comprehensive attempt to account for scientific themes in Second Temple Judaism. They investigate the meaning and purpose of scientific explorations in an apocalyptic setting. An appreciation of these topics paves the way to a renewed understanding of the scientific fragments scattered throughout rabbinic literature. The book first places the Jewish material in the ancient context of the Near Eastern and Hellenistic worlds. While the Jewish texts were not on the cutting edge of scientific discovery, they find a meaningful place in the history of science, between Babylonia and Egypt, in the time period between Hipparchus and Ptolemy. The book uses recent advances in method to examine the contacts and networks of Jewish scholars in their ancient setting. Second, the essays here tackle the problematic concept of a national scientific tradition. Although science is nowadays often conceived as universal, the historiography of ancient Jewish sciences demonstrates the importance of seeing the development of science in a local context. The book explores the tension between the hegemony of central scientific traditions and local scientific enterprises, showing the relevance of ancient data to contemporary postcolonial historiography of science. Finally, philosophical questions of the demarcation of science are addressed in a way that can advance the discussion of related ancient materials.

Gr.-8°, Ln. m. SU. XI, 249 S. Neuwertiges Ex. / Fine Copy // Der Text "Miqsat Ma`ase Ha-Torah", Einiges von den Werken der Tora (4QMMT), ist eine der interessantesten Schriften unter den berühmten Texten vom Toten Meer, die um die Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts in den Höhlen nahe der Siedlung Khirbet Qumran gefunden wurden und mittlerweile vollständig publiziert sind. Es handelt sich um ein Lehrschreiben in der Form eines Briefes, das von einem unbekannten Autor verfasst ist und sich an einen im Singular und Plural angesprochenen unbekannten Adressaten richtet. Das Lehrschreiben ist der älteste Zeuge aus vorchristlicher, hellenistischer Zeit für die explizite Auslegung des jüdischen Gesetzes, die sogenannte Halakha, wie sie in der späteren rabbinischen Überlieferung üblich geworden und breit bezeugt ist. Der vorliegende Band bietet nach einer Einführung in die Funde vom Toten Meer im Allgemeinen und den Text "Miqsat Ma`ase Ha-Torah" im Speziellen eine Neuedition und Übersetzung sowie Beiträge ausgewiesener Spezialisten zu der handschriftlichen Überlieferung, der Sprache, den Inhalten sowie den literatur- und zeitgeschichtlichen Kontexten der Schrift.
