Strack's classic introduction to Rabbinic literature has now been fully revised and updated by Gunter Stemberger, an established expert on Rabbinic history and literature. This work, the only comprehensive one-volume introduction to the subject, will be invaluable as textbook and reference guide for students and scholars of Jewish history and literature alike. H L Strack (1848-1922) was Profesor of Old Testament at the University of Berlin. He founded the Institutum Judaicum in Berlin. Every canonical text is represented, includes indices and appendices.
