Folks: I have a work in front of me that is causing me RDA problems:
Iyunim be-sifrut mizmore Tehilim / Dr. Refael Adari. The book is a compilation of two parts: the full text of Psalms and Dr. Adari's commentary, which has no special name aside from Iyunim be-sifrut mizmore Tehilim. Since it's a compilation, the structure is: 24500 XXXXXXXXXX 7XX12$Container of (work):$aXXXXXXXX 7XX12$Container of (work):$aXXXXXXXX For the piece in hand, 24500 Iyunim be-sifrut mizmore Tehilim .... 70012$iContainer of (work):$aAdari, Refael. $t Iyunim be-sifrut mizmore Tehilim 73002$iContainer of (work):$aBible. $p Psalms. etc. The problem for me is that in its presentation, the publisher is clearly emphasizing the commentary as the major feature of the book even though it's one of two constituent parts. 1) Is this truly a compilation or is there a way of reading the rules (aside from a less-than-full encoding level) to allow for a more intuitive/AACR2-esque approach, e.g. 10010Adari, Refael 24510Iyunim be-sifrut mizmore Tehilim .... 73002$iContainer of (work):$aBible. $p Psalms. etc. ? 2) "70012$iContainer of (work):$aAdari, Refael. $t Iyunim be-sifrut mizmore Tehilim" makes me uneasy, mostly because I think it'll cause confusion among both patrons and catalogers. Am I correct in my formulation? Is there a better way of doing this? Thanks for your help.
