SUBJECT HEADINGS

...

Formation of the Talmud

The work being cataloged encompasses two headings that can be formed using 
free-floating subdivisions, Talmud-History and Talmud-Publication and 
distribution. The proposal was unnecessary.

....

Graphic novels-Religious aspects; Graphic novels-Religious aspects-Judaism

The subdivision Religious aspects is usually used to indicate that the topic 
plays some role in the practice of the religion see H 1998. It is suggested 
that the cataloger consider the heading Judaism in comics. The proposal was 
unnecessary.

...

Judaism and comics

SHM H 310, sec. 1, says, "Establish new headings in the form [ Topic A ] and [ 
Topic B ] only when the work being cataloged discusses the relationship between 
the topics from both perspectives and in such broad terms that it could not 
accurately be described by the use of a main heading and subdivision." The work 
being cataloged discusses the impact Judaism has on comics but not the way that 
comics influence Judaism. The proposal was unnecessary.

Judeo-Iraqi language

The proposal makes it appear as if the cataloger is presenting this as a dead 
language. Some further research should be done because it appears as if there 
are still speakers of this language. The proposal may be resubmitted.

...

Virtue-Religious aspects-Judaism

The subheading religious aspects applies only to headings with no religious 
implications. Other works on virtue in other religions has the post-coordinated 
headings. It is suggested that the cataloger use the headings Virtue and Jewish 
ethics. The proposal was unnecessary.
