Dear Sir/Madam, I would like to introduce a new publication by the Hebrew University Magnes Press:
Ta'am HaTe'amim By Guillaume Postel<https://www.magnes-press.com/Authors/Guillaume+Postel.aspx?name=Guillaume+Postel> Edited by Judith Weiss<https://www.magnes-press.com/Authors/Judith+Weiss.aspx?name=Judith+Weiss> [https://www.magnes-press.com/NetisUtils/srvrutil_getImg.aspx?unitId=5160]<https://www.magnes-press.com/Book/Ta%E2%80%99am+HaTe%E2%80%99amim.aspx?name=Ta%E2%80%99am+HaTe%E2%80%99amim&code=45-141031&docNo=3&qid=2>In 1552, the French Catholic orientalist and mystic Guillaume Postel (1510-1581) wrote a messianic essay in the Hebrew language, aimed for Jewish readers, entitled Ta'am HaTe'amim. This rare work sheds light on unique political and spiritual stances common among the Catholic reformatory circles in the sixteenth century, amid the strengthening of the Protestant Reformation. Ta'am HaTe'amim is a unique example of Hebrew writing by a Christian scholar during the early modern period, boasting surprising linguistic phenomena that stem from Postel's theological outlook in general and toward the Hebrew language especially. .
