Synopsis
Contributing Authors

Der Sefer Shimmush Tehillim (das “Buch vom magischen Gebrauch der Psalmen”) ist ein im Judentum teilweise bis heute populares Handbuch, in dem den biblischen Psalmen magische Verwendungen zugeordnet werden. Die Anfange seiner Redaktion reichen bis in die Spatantike und in den agyptisch-palastinischen Raum zuruck. Die altesten erhaltenen Textzeugen stammen aus der Kairoer Geniza, sind in einer hebraisch-aramaischen Mischsprache verfasst und wurden in einer reprasentativen Auswahl in Magische Texte aus der Kairoer Geniza, Bd. 3, hrsg. von Peter Schafer und Shaul Shaked, Tubingen 1999 [TSAJ 72], erstmals ediert. Das Ende der hier umfassend dokumentierten, komplexen Redaktionsgeschichte dieses Manuals wird einerseits durch den Erstdruck Sabbioneta 1551, der zum textus receptus wurde, und andererseits durch die sefardische Rezension, die nur handschriftlich bezeugt ist, bezeichnet. In der vorliegenden Veroffentlichung ediert Bill Rebiger mittelalterliche und fruhneuzeitliche Handschriften sowie die editio princeps synoptisch. In einer zweispaltigen Synopse ubersetzt er den Erstdruck und die sefardische Rezension ins Deutsche und kommentiert in Anmerkungen Probleme der Ubersetzung. In einem separaten Einzelkommentar widmet er sich ausfuhrlich den Beziehungen zwischen dem Text eines Psalms und seiner jeweiligen magischen Verwendung sowie zwischen den Rezensionen, den text- und traditionsgeschichtlichen Entwicklungen, den Paralleltexten aus der magischen Literatur und der ritualtheoretischen Analyse der Handlungsanweisungen. Eine allgemeine und forschungsgeschichtliche Einleitung und verschiedene Indices komplettieren dieses Buch.
