[Heb-NACO] RDA capitalization question

[Taub, Aaron]

Dear Vanessa,

In the LC database, we’ve mostly capitalized Tannaim (and Amoraim, for that matter) and Tannaitic.

Best wishes,
Aaron T.

Subject: [Heb-NACO] RDA capitalization question

Hello all

I am cataloguing a book called:

לתורתם של תנאים

With added t.p.: STUDIES IN TANNAITIC LITERATURE.

Would you capitalise tanaʼim and/or tannaitic? The closest example I can find in RDA (A.17.3) is ‘the Fathers (but church fathers)’.

Thanks

Vanessa
