"The Babylonian Talmud" and the "Jerusalem Talmud" show a myriad of sorrowful situations in various levels and circumstances and a variety of human behavior in these situations. The causes and expressions of sorrow amongst the Sages are different from its parallels amongst common people or women. The descriptions of sorrow vary between the Babylonian and the Jerusalem Talmud. "Sorrow and Distress in the Talmud" discusses more than 50 stories from both the Babylonian and the Jerusalem Talmud focusing on those issues.
Shulamit Valler (Ph.D. Jewish Theological Seminary) is a professor of Talmud and Chair of the Jewish History department at the University of Haifa. Her numerous publications include Women and Womanhood in the Babylonian Talmud (1999) and Massekhet Sukkah–a Feminist Commentary on the Babylonian Talmud (2009).
