Title: Fragmenta Hebraica Austriaca
Description: "This volume contains four papers delivered during the International Meeting of the Society of Biblical Literature held in 2007 in Vienna. It presents the current results and the future plans of the "Hebrew Manuscripts and Fragments in Austrian Libraries" project, begun in 1991 by Prof. DDr. Ferdinand Dexinger. Images of the Hebrew text fragments in Austria recorded so far (particularly biblical, rabbinic and liturgical texts) have been available since 2007 in online catalog on the website of the Commission of Paleography and Codicology of Medieval Manuscripts in Austria. Discussed in the thesis papers topics include the methodology and AIMS of the project, to assessment of the results from a Judaic perspective, the presentation of a particularly important fragment discovered in St. Paul's Lavant Valley, and a discussion of special characters in fragments of Torah scrolls. This publication will be of interest to Judaists, theologians and philologists."--Publisher's website.
