There are no prerequisites for taking this course. However, we encourage learners to explore edX DemoX if they are unfamiliar with the edX platform.
Though this course can stand alone, it is the fifth part of a series exploring what can be learned from studying Jewish manuscripts. Part 1 is by Professor Y. Tzvi Langermann (PennX–Katz1.1x), part 2 is by Professor Alessandro Guetta (PennX–Katz1.2x), part 3 is by Professor Fabrizio Lelli (PennX–Katz1.3x), and part 4 is by Professor Judith Schlanger (PennX-Katz1.4x).
The course asks the following questions (and more):
How can we locate a particular manuscript within a larger liturgical tradition?
What sorts of information can be gained about a community by looking at a manuscript as a physical object?
What do manuscripts tell us about the experience of medieval Jewish liturgical practice?
What physical changes to manuscripts present problems and opportunities for interpretation?
