Thames & Hudson, 2016. Hardbound. New Book. Hardbound. The Haggadah was created by Sephardi--Iberian--artists and scribes in Catalonia in the second quarter of the 14th century, and sets out the liturgy and sequence of the Passover Seder, a ritual feast by which Jewish families give thanks for the liberation of the Israelites from slavery in ancient Egypt as described in the Book of Exodus. The manuscript prescribes all eight days of the associated feast, and includes liturgical poems, most of the morning liturgy, biblical readings, and previously untranslated commentary of the Haggadah. Introductory chapters consider the physical book, the images, the ritual and texts, the provenance of the Brother Haggadah, and the Shealtiel family. The main texts and marginal texts are translated. The facsimile of the manuscript begins at what would be the back of an English book, and proceeds as Hebrew books do: pages left to right and text right to left. (2016 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR).
