Dear Colleagues, Mo'adim le-simha!
I'm thrilled to share this year's Norman E. Alexander Celebration of Collections: This year's annual NEA Celebration of Collections has an early modern focus, where three scholars will discuss their research on what we find in books when we look beyond the actual texts - at annotations, illustrations, and other paratexts. Professor Elisheva Carlebach (Columbia University) will discuss a colorful manuscript on the Jewish calendar; Dr. Eugene Matanky (Tel Aviv University) will share his research on a group of Kabbalists who shared their knowledge on the margins of their books; and Professor Edward Fram (Ben Gurion University) will share his research on a manuscript that highlights practical use of the quintessential legal work the Shulhan 'Arukh at the beginning of its publication. The event will be held on zoom, at December 1, at 12 PM ET.
