Examines the character, use and social meaning of the formalised rhetoric which pervades the "Babylonian Talmud". This title explores how the editors of the "Talmud" employ a consistent and highly laconic code of formalised linguistic terms and literary patterns to create the "Talmud's" renowned dialectical, analytic 'essays'.
