In this volume, her first to appear in English, she offers a fascinating window into some of the liveliest and most colorful stories in the Talmud. Calderon rewrites talmudic tales as richly imagined fictions, drawing us into the lives of such characters as the woman who risks her life for a sister suspected of adultery; a humble schoolteacher who rescues his village from drought; and a wife who dresses as a prostitute to seduce her pious husband in their garden.

Historical criticism in early modern Europe -- 2. The origins of the Ars historica: a question mal posee? -- 3. Method and madness in the Ars historica: three case studies -- 4. Death of a genre.From the late fifteenth century onwards, scholars across Europe began to write books about how to read and evaluate histories. These pioneering works grew from complex early modern debates about law, religion and classical scholarship. Anthony Grafton's book is based on his Trevelyan Lectures of 2005, and it proves to be a powerful and imaginative exploration of some central themes in the history of European ideas. Grafton explains why so many of these works were written, why they attained so much insight - and why, in the centuries that followed, most scholars gradually forgot that they had existed. Elegant and accessible, What Was History? is a deliberate evocation of E. H. Carr's celebrated Trevelyan Lectures, What Is History?.Canto classics.HistoriographyEuropeHistoryHistoryPhilosophyHistoriographyHistory.HistoryPhilosophy.940.2/3072Grafton Anthony181216UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910807853803321What was history4066335UNINA
