Introducing Reinhard G. Lehmann

Post by RGLehmann »

I am Dr. Reinhard G. Lehmann, Academic Director & chair of the Research Unity for Ancient Hebrew & Epigraphy at the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz, Germany.
I was born in 1955 in Berlin-Spandau. My parents were the artists Prof. Lothar Lehmann and Hannelore Kind-Lehmann. From 1975 to 1983 I studied Protestant Theology and Ancient Near Eastern Languages at the Kirchliche Hochschule Berlin and the Freie Universität Berlin, and Applied Photography at the Hochschule der Künste (University of Fine Arts) Berlin. I passed my first theological exam at the Protestant Church of Berlin-Brandenburg (West Berlin), from 1983-1989 worked as research assistant at the Department of Old Testament studies and Biblical Archaeology at the Johannes Gutenberg-University of Mainz.
Here also I did my Ph.D. on „Friedrich Delitzsch und der Babel-Bibel-Streit“ in 1989.

I teach Ancient and Biblical Hebrew, Ancient and Biblical Aramaic, Phoenician, and Northwest Semitic Epigraphy, specializing on early alphabetic calligraphy technics.
I am the founder and the editor of the learned journal KUSATU and the textbook series SILO (Harrassowitz publishing house).

My majors in research and teaching are:
Northwest Semitic epigraphy of the early 1st millennium BCE (Phoenician, Hebrew, Aramaic)
Northwest Semitic (especially Hebrew and Phoenician) palaeography and art of writing
Hebrew and Phoenician syntax and metrics
Language history and dialectology of (Biblical) Ancient Hebrew
