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.

The East Syriac Psalm Headings

The Psalm Headings remain one of the most difficult and puzzling pieces of the Hebrew Bible. The present study looks at how these titles were treated in the East Syriac traditions. This volume gives a history of research and presents a new critical edition based on previously unpublished manuscripts. The Psalm headings in the East Syriac tradition reflect the exegesis of the Antiochene school, especially Diodore of Tarsus and Theodore of Mopsuestia. The headings contain a summary of Theodore's exegesis which had an important influence on the work of Syriac interpreters such as Ishodad of Merv and Bar Hebraeus.
