 abstract = {In accordance with the definition of diaspora offered in Chapter 1, a diaspora is formed when two or more collectives have a doubled cultural location at home, as it were, and abroad.Thinking about the Babylonian Talmud, we find a mixture of genres and a mixture of languages (early Hebrew, later Hebrew, Palestinian Aramaic, Babylonian Aramaic, Greek, and Persian), as well as a mixture of representations of speakers of those languages. The writers of the two Talmuds were doubly oriented, to the place where they were and to the other place where their fellow Rabbis were—in Palestine or Iranian},
