520 8  Annotation In this pathbreaking study Jeffrey L. 
       Rubenstein reconstructs the cultural milieu of the 
       rabbinic academy that produced the Babylonian Talmud, or 
       Bavli, which quickly became the authoritative text of 
       rabbinic Judaism and remains so to this day. Unlike the 
       rabbis who had earlier produced the shorter Palestinian 
       Talmud (the Yerushalmi) and who had passed on their 
       teachings to students individually or in small and 
       informal groups, the anonymous redactors of the Bavli were
       part of a large institution with a distinctive, isolated, 
       and largely undocumented culture. The Culture of the 
       Babylonian Talmud explores the cultural world of these 
       Babylonian rabbis and their students through the prism of 
       the stories they included in the Bavli, showing how their 
       presentation of earlier rabbinic teachings was influenced 
       by their own values and practices. Among the topics 
       explored in this broad-ranging work are the hierarchical 
       structure of the rabbinic academy, the use of dialectics 
       in teaching, the functions of violence and shame within 
       the academy, the role of lineage in rabbinic leadership, 
       the marital and family lives of the rabbis, and the 
       relationship between the rabbis and the rest of the Jewish
       population. This book provides a unique and new 
       perspective on the formative years of rabbinic Judaism and
       will be essential reading for all students of the Talmud.
