A Diplomatic Edition of Mishna-Codex Kaufmann (A50)

The aim of the project is to produce a full diplomatic edition of the single most important textual witness to the Mishna—ms. Kaufmann A50. The edition will attempt to establish a Mishna text that will provide a holistic description of (an important branch of) the Rabbinic Hebrew language tradition, in a way that will in turn serve as a basis both for a sound grammatical/lexicographical description, as well as for comparison to related traditions of Hebrew (and Aramaic).
