  • Printing, Hebrew Book Culture and Sefer Ḥasidim
    Printing, Hebrew Book Culture and Sefer Ḥasidim Joseph A. Skloot Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2017 © 2017 Joseph A. Skloot All rights reserved ABSTRACT Printing, Hebrew Book Culture and Sefer Ḥasidim Joseph A. Skloot This dissertation is a contribution to the fields of the history of the Hebrew book and ear- ly modern Jewish cultural history. It is a study of Sefer Ḥasidim, a text that originated in the me- dieval Rhineland, in its first two printed editions (of 1538 and 1581, respectively). By analyzing these editions closely, and by comparing them to their manuscript antecedents, it is possible to determine how the work of printing changed Sefer Ḥasidim and how printing shaped readers’ understanding of the text. These investigations advance the argument that the printing of Hebrew books was a creative act, not merely a process of reproduction and dissemination. Like all cre- ative productions, moreover, these editions can be read as witnesses to the particular social and cultural contexts from which they emerged—in this case, a period of upheaval in Jewish life and European society. Moreover, the varied cast of characters who produced these editions—printers, editors, proofreaders, press workers, among others—were influenced by commercial, intellectual and religious interests unique to the sixteenth century and to Italy. These interests left their mark on the texts of Sefer Ḥasidim that emerged from their presses (in the form of censorship and emendations), as well as their associated paratexts (e.g.

Mamma Roma, de klassieke film van Pier Paolo Pasolini uit 1962 en Mamma Mia, om precies te zijn Mamma Mia 2, waarin zangeres Cher, stijf van de botox, een in­ middels breed uitgemeten verrassingsoptreden maakt. En ik vroeg me af of er een verband was tussen het moment waarop sterren op grote schaal hun eigen beeltenis begonnen te boetse­ ren met behulp van plastische chirurgie en bo­ tox, en het moment waarop film z’n interesse in het beeldhouwen met tijd en licht verloor. Van Mamma Roma naar Mamma Mia is mis­ schien een grote stap. En de stap van schoon­ heid dóór de camera naar een schoonheidside­ aal vóór de camera misschien nog wel groter. Maar het laat me niet los. Wat zegt het over schoonheid? Wat zegt het over onze opvattin­ gen over echtheid en realisme? Het lijkt erop dat we de camera steeds meer zijn gaan geloven, maar steeds minder vertrou­ wen. Neem bijvoorbeeld dit screenshot uit de laatste scène van Mamma Roma.
