Jerome’s Vulgate Version of Tobit and Its Reception in the Jewish Medieval Text “Hebraeus Londini of Tobit” (North French Miscellany BL Add. 11639)

现状：《托比特书》（公元前200年左右）已经成为深入研究的对象。到目前为止，库姆兰希伯来语和阿拉姆语碎片（4Q196-200）以及古希腊版本一直是人们感兴趣的焦点。除了研究文本的历史外，还特别注意了个别的宗教历史和神学主题（例如，托拉的概念；魔法，疾病和治疗）。然而，之前的研究仍然留下了许多未解之谜。例如，通俗传统已经从语言学的角度进行了详细的研究（见斯坎普）；然而，它的解释，集中在它的“Sondergut”和融入整个叙事仍然是一个愿望。此外，其神学观念与杰罗姆和教父的思想世界的关系也有待探讨。关于托比特传统的进一步研究领域，迄今为止几乎尚未开发，是中世纪手稿（例如，Hebraeus munenster [HM], Hebraeus Fagius， Hebraeus Londini等人）。这些传统本身就很有意义，在他们形成的时候，它们是犹太人虔诚的见证。在这种情况下，特别重要的是“希伯来Londini”传统，因为犹太人接受了拉丁文文本。因此，《托比特书》的文本历史必须放在中世纪犹太教和基督教宗教接触的背景下考虑。项目目标：一方面，该项目旨在调查Tobit-Vulgate及其传统的神学维度，另一方面，研究中世纪“希伯来Londini”手稿中Tobit-Vulgate的接受情况。犹太-基督教宗教接触的主题以及这种接待的具体“Sitz im Leben”问题是一个进一步调查的主题。本研究将基于对这两个文本的全新翻译，从方法论的传统批判和叙事学的角度来探讨这一问题。申请人和未来的项目合作者都通过对托比特传统的深入研究，在这些问题上接受了培训。项目合作者也有研究拉丁文和教父解经的专业知识，这对项目的实施是必不可少的。研究人员将把研究结果发表在著名的《申命经和同源文学研究》系列的专著中（由卢卡斯·布鲁姆·特谢拉（Lucas Brum Teixeira）撰写）。由于这项工作也与后古托比特文本的研究高度相关，申请人将在单独的出版物中提交Hebraeus Londini女士的翻译，并对个别来源进行详细评论。

State of the art: The Book of Tobit (around 200 BCE) has become an object of intensive research. The Qumran Hebrew and Aramaic fragments (4Q196-200), as well as the old Greek versions, have been the focus of interest thus far. In addition to examining the history of the text, special attention was paid to the individual religious-historical and theological motifs (e.g., the concept of the Torah; magic, sickness and healing).However, previous studies still leave many questions unanswered. The Vulgate tradition, for example, has been examined in detail from a linguistic point of view (see Skemp); however, its interpretation, which focusses on its “Sondergut” and its integration into the entire narration is still a desideratum. Moreover, the relationship of its theological conceptions with Jerome’s and the Church Fathers’ world of thought has to be explored.A further field of research about the Tobit tradition, which has been almost untapped so far, are medieval manuscripts (e.g., Hebraeus Muenster [HM], Hebraeus Fagius, Hebraeus Londini et al.). These traditions are to be seen as meaningful in their own right and as witnesses of Jewish piety at the time of their formation. Of particular importance in this context is the “Hebraeus Londini” tradition, insofar as a Jewish reception of the Vulgate text took place. Therefore, the textual history of the Tobit book must be regarded in the context of the medieval Jewish-Christian religious contact.Project Objectives: On the one hand, this project aims to investigate the theological dimensions of the Tobit-Vulgate and its traditions, and on the other hand, to examine the reception of the Tobit-Vulgate in the medieval “Hebraeus Londini” manuscript. The topic of the Jewish-Christian religious contact and the question of the concrete “Sitz im Leben” of such a reception is a topic of further investigation.Based on a fresh translation of the two texts, the study will explore the subject in a methodologically tradition-critical and narratological way. Both the applicant and the future project collaborator are trained in these matters through their intensive study of the Tobit traditions. The project collaborator also has expertise in researching the Vulgate and Patristic exegesis, which is indispensable for carrying out the project. The investigators will publish the research results in a monograph in the renowned series, “Deuterocanonical and Cognate Literature Studies” (under the authorship of Lucas Brum Teixeira). Since the work is also of highly relevant for research into the post-Ancient Tobit texts in general, the applicant will present the translation of Ms. Hebraeus Londini with a detailed commentary on the individual sources in a separate publication.
