Jewish Oral Traditions: An Interdisciplinary Approach

Vol. VI
Synopsis

For four years between 1982 and 1986 the Jewish Music Research Centre hosted research seminars devoted to the Jewish oral traditions. Researchers in different fields (linguistics, musicology, literature and folklore) met and worked together and dealt with shared material that they approached with their own tools and research habits in the attempt to achieve results of an interdisciplinary type.
Several topics were chosen – biblical and post-biblical cantillation; aspects of the Judeo-Spanish folk song; specific rituals of the Hassidic communities and the majority of studies are to be found in the present volume.
