Essays in this volume honor and reflect on Richard L. Kalmin's wide-ranging impact on the field of rabbinics. Contributors explore a variety of topics from the development of the Talmud to rabbinic storytelling, from the transmission of tales across geographic and cultural boundaries to ancient Jewish and Iranian interactions. Many of the essays reflect current trends in how scholars use ancient Jewish literary sources to address questions of historical import.
