Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces us to the untold story of Western European scholars who toiled to revive the study of Hebrew during the Middle Ages, focusing on the era and legacy of Roger Bacon. At the time, the study of Dead Sea Scrolls was hindered by the widespread superstition surrounding Jewish people and their language, which was seen as magical or even demonic. The author traces the influence of earlier scholars, the methods of study used, and the obstacles faced by early scholars in their quest to master Hebrew texts, which included grammatical difficulties and the demanding task of translating them. The book reveals the enormous challenges and eventual triumphs of these courageous individuals, showcasing their steadfastness in the face of adversity, and highlighting the central role that Hebrew language studies played in shaping the intellectual landscape of the Western world.
