- This book of c.450 pages is based on a large corpus of Hebrew texts which has been subjected to detailed linguistic analysis including orthography, morphology, syntax, and lexis. The grammar of Hasidic Hebrew is brought into relationship with earlier types of Hebrew, from the Bible onwards, with other contemporaneous Hebrews, and with other Jewish languages. It is also evaluated with respect to its contributions to Modern (Israeli) Hebrew. This study is based on original, pioneering research in an under-studied, somewhat inaccessible body of literature, and also situated within the long-term history of the Hebrew language.
