Rabbi Moshe Arragel and other scholars composed in the years 1422-30/33 the Arragel Bible. It is an extensive work that includes several texts in at least five different genres, as well as more than three hundred illuminations. Scholarly research on this medieval codex has been carried out now for more than one century. It is therefore possible today to analyse and investigate some of the factors that define its particularities, traditions and changes. Political interests, institutional or scholarly traditions and technological changes are factors that determine this kind of studies. Attention is drawn to: a) issues of technological reproduction (photolithography or facsimile industry) in determining criticism, and b) the role played by institutions (such as the Roxburghe Club) in the making of knowledge.
