Notes
edit- ↑ The following sources were consulted in preparing this translation of the titles of the books and topics in Mishneh Torah: Moses Hyamson, trans., Mishneh Torah, Volume I, The Book of Knowledge (New York, Feldheim: 1974); the multi-volume Yale Judaica Series translation of Mishneh Torah by numerous authors; the translation of the titles as found at Mechon Mamre. All three of these sources translate most of the titles very similarly to each other most of the time, though there are a number of significant variations between them. The Wikisource translation of these titles strives to emulate Maimonides' combination of accuracy, brevity and clarity, arriving at translations which are often similar or identical to some or all of the previous translations, but at other times differ from any or all of them. The Wikisource translation of the actual text in the chapters of Mishneh Torah, however, as opposed to the titles, is done from scratch with no consultation of these previous translations (of which only the Yale translation is nearly complete).
This work was published before January 1, 1929, and is in the public domain worldwide because the author died at least 100 years ago.
