Hollander (Heisenber Program, Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft) examines Hebrew liturgical poetry that is used to beautify and focus worship, particularly that of the region now known as the Rhineland. Medieval writers sought to follow classical models on special occasions when piyyut was not otherwise available. She introduces the genre and its creators, then proceeds to analyze the commentators on the piyyut, listing them and analyzing their work and crediting compilers of collections. She provides linguistic glosses, including lexical explanations, and provides intertextual references within piyyut, using the Bible and rabbinic sources as hypotexts. She places the piyyut commentary within its medieval contexts and closely analyzes esoteric piyyut exegesis, poets and poetics within piyyut commentary, methods of compilation, and models of compilation structure and intention. The result is a valuable contribution to what is sure to become a growing field. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
