Item description from seller

María Jesús Pérez-Jáuregui (ed). Pages: xxii + 454 p. Illustrations:8 col. Language(s):English. Publication Year:2024. Brepols. ISBN: 978-0-88844-232-1. Hardback -- SUMMARY Robert Wakefield and his brother Thomas were pioneers in the study and teaching of Hebrew in early modern England. Robert was trained at Cambridge, acquired expertise in Aramaic, Hebrew, and Arabic, and obtained professorial status in Louvain, Cambridge, and Oxford. Thomas took possession of his brother’s books and manuscripts upon his death; he enjoyed long tenure as praelector in Hebrew at Cambridge and was a compulsive annotator of his books. This volume draws together the political, linguistic, and bibliographical materials that shaped the careers of these two scholars, revising previous claims and producing a compelling analysis of Hebrew learning in sixteenth-century England.
