The course will address major works of literature of the Sages from the first centuries. Throughout the course, we will analyze and discuss key texts and research on law (halakhah), lore (aggadah) and biblical interpretation in order to shed light on the literature that formed Judaism. By the end of this course, students should be able to have basic familiarity with early rabbinic literature and key issues of its research.
