About the book

"In 'Pirqei deRabbi Eliezer: Structure, Coherence, Intertextuality' Katharina E. Keim offers a description of the literary character of 'Pirqei deRabbi Eliezer', an enigmatic work of the late-eighth-to-early-ninth centuries CE. Katharina E. Keim explores the work's distinctive literary features through an analysis of its structure and coherence. These literary features, when taken together with the work's intertextual relationships with antecedent and contemporaneous Christian and Jewish (rabbinic and non-rabbinic) texts, reveal 'Pirqei deRabbi Eliezer' to be an innovative work, and throw light on a new turn in Jewish literature following the rise of Islam" -- page 4 of cover.
