520 |a Ilanot (Hebrew, “trees”) refers to a distinct kabbalistic iconotextual genre constituted by the marriage of schema and medium: the arboreal diagram and the parchment sheet. The present article seeks to highlight the latter and explore the ways in which the media of ilanot effected their meaning and function. The constitutive role of the material text of the ilan is communicated by the synecdoche yeri‘ah ([parchment] sheet) commonly used to refer to such artifacts in the 14th and 15th centuries. Two definitive characteristics of ilanot – their map-like nature and the mimetic significance of the act of scrolling – are also shown to be intimately related to their materiality.
