From the beginning of printing in the Ottoman Empire, Ottoman minorities have always played a central role, and the same pattern holds true for journalism in the Ottoman Empire. This volume presents the contributions of Ottoman and Turkish Jewry to publishing and printing. Avner Levy discusses Jewish newspapers and magazines in the Turkish republic and Gad Nassi examines Ottoman Jewish journals. Yaron Ben-Na’eh’s article describes Ottoman Hebrew printing houses. Finally, Rifat Bali contributes a bibliography of works on journalism and printing by Jews in the Ottoman Empire. The book also contains a collection of images of Jewish books and periodicals.

Jews in Iraq after the Muslim Conquest

As the oldest organized religion in Sassanian Iraq, Judaism serves as a kind of model for other religious organizations in the region. After considering the growth of Judaism in Iraq during the Sassanian period, Morony notes the connections between the Jewish and Aramaean populations as well as the intermixed ethnic communities in which Jews played a part. Social, administrative, and religious issues are all considered. Messianic expectations as they continued to develop in the Jewish community in diaspora round out this discussion of Judaism as a fully developed religion in Iraq under Islamic rule.

The Arabic Bible from Late Antiquity

The biblical material translated into Arabic during the Middle Ages included texts from the Hexateuch contained in Codex Sinai Arabic 3, the first in the Christian Arabic Texts series now being published. This set of six texts (Pentateuch + Joshua) is of enormous interest, for what it tells us not only about translating into Arabic, and about the techniques and strategies adopted by the translators, but also about the revisions and reworkings to which the original translations were subjected, and in general about the transmission process undergone by biblical texts in the hands of successive copyists.
