      abstract = {The Mishnah is the foundational document of rabbinic  Judaism-all of rabbinic law, from ancient to modern times,  is based on the Talmud, and the Talmud, in turn, is based  on the Mishnah. But the Mishnah is also an elusive  document; its sources and setting are obscure, as are its  genre and purpose.In January 2021 the Harvard Center for  Jewish Studies and the Julis-Rabinowitz Program on Jewish  and Israeli Law of the Harvard Law School co-sponsored a  conference devoted to the simple yet complicated question:  "What is the Mishnah?" Leading scholars from the United  States, Europe, and Israel assessed the state of the art in  Mishnah studies; and the papers delivered at that  conference form the basis of this collection. Learned yet  accessible, What Is the Mishnah? gives readers a clear  sense of current and future direction of Mishnah studies.},
