Rashi - Linguist despite Himself - Dr. Jonathan (Dublin City University Kearney - Bog

The commentary on the "Torah" of the eleventh-century French rabbi, Solomon Yishaqi of Troyes (better known as Rashi), is one of the major texts of mediaeval Judaism. Through a close reading of Rashi's commentary on Deuteronomy that deals with language, this book examines the extent and nature of his linguistic knowledge.
