BiNaH: Bibliothèque Nationale “Hebraica”: Hebrew Manuscripts in Paris».
No full textA comprehensive cataloguing and an historical recherche of the collection of Hebrew manuscripts held by the Bibliothèque nationale de France (BNF) still remains a desideratum. The collaborative project Bibliothèque Nationale “Hebraica”: Hebrew Manuscripts in Paris (BiNaH), aims at filling this gap. The project's objective is on the one hand, to prepare the first complete and updated catalogue of the BNF Hebrew manuscripts, on the other to write the history of the collection, through an in-depth research of the different components, legacies and intellectual endeavours behind the acquisition and assembling of the BNF’s Hebrew collection. The BNF collection is one of the richest worldwide including almost 1500 Hebrew manuscripts. Assembled through the centuries from various important legacies, these manuscripts date from the middle ages to the modern era and originate from all over Europe, North Africa and the Middle East. This remarkable corpus includes manuscripts on different topics: Biblical codices and Torah scrolls, Biblical commentaries, Talmudic and rabbinic texts, theological treatises, prayer books, and historical works. It also includes documents from everyday life, philosophical, scientific, medical, lexicographical, magical and mystical treatises. Some manuscripts are splendidly illuminated, others are kabbalistic parchments that once belonged to humanists and Hebraists. The unique stories and intellectual endeavours behind the acquisition and assembling of the Hebrew collection of the BNF still remain to be explored. Its history is intimately linked not only to Jewish cultural history but to the inner development of French history and European civilization. The duty of preserving and enhancing these invaluable treasures is at the heart of BiNaH project. The project will be hosted at IRHT (IRHT, irht.cnrs.fr/, CNRS UPR 841, Paris) and coordinated by Dr. Emma ABATE (researcher at IRHT) in collaboration with the BNF, in the person of Dr. Laurent HÉRICHER (chief curator of the Department of Oriental manuscripts). The codicological, palaeographical and historical investigation of the manuscripts will be carried out by an international team of scholars in the field of Hebrew codicology and palaeography, iconography, Jewish Studies, and with the technical support of the IRHT Digital humanities pole. The principal aims of the project BiNaH are the following: (1) To publish a complete fully updated catalogue, in print and online, of the Hebrew manuscripts collection held at the BNF. (2) To create a database, serving the specific purpose of cataloguing Hebrew manuscripts and structuring catalogue records, and an open-access and collaborative web platform enabling users to access the in-depth descriptions in the database and all existing information about each manuscript. The database and the web platform will be completely interoperable with other existing systems, granting exchange with major digital images repositories and open-source projects, such as Gallica (gallica.bnf.fr/), and Ktiv (web.nli.org.il/). (3) To publish a collective volume highlighting the history and the treasures of the BNF Hebrew collection. This historical investigation will be conducted on the basis of in-depth research into the available archival and by following the intellectual paths of scribes, owners and collectors who moulded the private collections behind the BNF Hebrew collection. This project will considerably improve our knowledge in the domains of Hebrew manuscripts and of Hebrew book culture and literacy from the middle ages through the early modern period. Its final goal is to enhance the knowledge of an invaluable cultural heritage and to facilitate its preservation
La fine del regno di Sedecia in 2Re e in Geremia
No full textLe volume porte sur les chapitres finaux du Second Livre des Roi et de Jérémie qui sont analysés au niveau philologique et en tant que documents historiques et littéraires. La confrontation des variantes manuscrites des traditions hébraïques, grecques, latines et syriaques, et la comparaison avec des chroniques babyloniennes et d’ouvrages littéraires grecs permettent d’éclairer le processus rédactionnel du texte. Les caractéristiques des recensions - kaige, de Lucien d’Antioche et d’Origène - sont mises en lumière, ainsi que les couches textuelles superposées au noyau originaire semi-légendaire du récit de la chute de Jérusalem (587-586 av. J.-C.). Le livre s’inscrit, d’un côté, dans le cadre de la critique du texte biblique et, de l’autre, dans la recherche sur l’histoire de l’Ancien Israël à travers l’analyse des sources bibliques et extrabibliques

Theory and Practice of Magic. Two manuscripts from the Alliance Israelite Universelle’s Genizah Collection
No full textThis essay deals with magical documents from the Cairo Genizah, which are currently held at the Alliance Israélite Universelle (AIU) library in Paris (Collection du Consistoire de Paris, déposée à la Bibliothèque de l’Alliance Israélite Universelle), and aims to trace the main features of the Jewish magical tradition by examining a range of direct textual evidence. An amulet for the general protection of a woman, manuscript VI C 21, and a text of segullot (magical recipes), manuscript VI C 6, are analysed and compared with other samples from the same collection
«Filologia e Qabbalah. La collezione ebraica di Egidio da Viterbo alla biblioteca Angelica di Roma» [Philology and the cabala. Egidio da Viterbo's Hebrew Collection in the Biblioteca Angelica]
No full textThe purpose of this essay is to reconstruct Christian humanist and Kabbalist Egidio da Viterbo's Jewish library. This analysis focuses mainly on the study of the manuscripts of the Egidian collection held in Rome in the Biblioteca Angelica. The first part looks at the intersection between Egidio's intellectual biography and the building of his Jewish and Kabbalistic library. The second part presents and examines the manuscripts which belonged to him in the Angelica collection from a codicological and historical perspective. Some of the manuscripts contain works which were composed by Jewish intellectuals under Egidio's protection (including Elia Levita), others were copied on commission by Egidio, yet others are Latin translations from Hebrew in which Egidio participated directly. Eminent personalities from the political and cultural scene of the Roman Renaissance such as Pope Leo X contributed with their gifts to enlarging the library collection. Each manuscript contains marks from Egidio's pen sometimes with a signature alone, an ownership note or notes in the margin. These highlight Egidio's multi-faceted intellectual vision which saw philosophy, philology and mysticism, Hebrew and Christian culture not as distant and conflicting but rather as complementary and mutually perfecting spheres in a single divine inspiration towards a superior sphere of knowledge and consciousness

David Qimḥi et Gilles de Viterbe : La lexicographie juive face à l’héritage magique
No full textCet article porte sur la notion de « magie » au Moyen Age et à la Renaissance. Il prend en considération le lexique biblique Sefer ha-Shorashim par l’exégète juif David Qimḥi (1160-1235) et sa traduction latine par le kabbaliste chrétien Gilles de Viterbe (1469-1532). Les entrées regardant les pratiques magiques sont
analysées en comparaison aux lemmes d’un glossaire inédit à la main de Gilles et du lexique hébreu Tishbi par le savant juif Elie Lévita (1469-1549). Ces thèmes sont abordés à la lumière des passages du Sefer Raziel, le livre de magie astrale le plus répandu à l’époque, dont Gilles possédait plusieurs copies. Le but est de mettre en lumière des aspects de la transmission des contenus magiques juifs aux hébraïsants chrétiens et leur contribution à la définition du magus à la Renaissance
