About This Text
Author: Joseph B. Soloveitchik
Reshimot Shiurim is a late 20th-century collection of notes from Talmud classes taught by Rabbi Joseph Soloveitchik at Yeshiva University, the Moriah Synagogue on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, and in other contexts. The notes were edited by Soloveitchik’s student, Rabbi Hershel Reichman, and Reichman’s son, Rabbi Moshe Reichman. Reshimot Shiurim highlights Rabbi Soloveitchik's adept use of the "Brisker method" of Talmud study to identify conceptual categories that reveal a deeper possible meaning to seemingly contradictory talmudic texts.
