The first Hebrew grammar written on American soil (in the sense formulated by Bad Bunny) was composed in Spanish in Mexico City in the 1650s. It's a very entertaining and clever book, and it was written by a Christian for Christians. I'll be discussing various aspects of the book at the National Autonomous University of Mexico next Tuesday, February 24th, at 5 PM Mexico City time. There will be a remote option. If you're interested, I'd be delighted to see you join online.
"Everything You Always Wanted to Know About #Hebrew but Were Afraid to Ask ( #Mexico 1650): Truth, Fiction, and Knowledge in a #Colonial Mexican Technical Text"

La primera gramática de hebreo escrita en suelo americano (en el sentido formulado por Bad Bunny) se redactó en español en la Ciudad de México en la década de 1650. Es un libro muy divertido e ingenioso y lo escribió un cristiano para cristianos. Voy a hablar sobre varios aspectos del libro desde la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México el próximo lunes, 24 de febrero, a las 5 de la tarde hora de México. Habrá una opción remota. Si gustan y les interesa, me dará mucho gusto verlos conectados.
Todo lo que quiso saber sobre el hebreo y no se atrevió a preguntar (México, 1650): régimen de verdad y ficción en un texto técnico novohispano

Query to #MedievalSky: what would you recommend as an exemplary philological study demonstrating good stemmatics, w/ accompanying use of apparatus to lay out variants? I'm looking for something w/ a *good, intriguing story* showing why that level of variant-hunting & weighing of chronology rocks.
