I'M BACK FROM OSLO, where I attended the
Bible as Notepad Conference. Besides the many interesting papers, highlights included a visit to Martin Schøyen's house to view some of his vast collection of manuscripts, and having the chance to hear Malachi Beit-Arie tell stories about Israeli academic life fifty years ago and about his doctoral supervisor Gershom Scholem.
Thanks to Liv Ingeborg Lied and her associates and assistants for a very stimulating conference.
