Talmud BerakhotVenice 1520-1523, Printed by Daniel BombergBM499 1520-1523 v.1, Fols. 46v-47r.
The Talmud is a sort of hypertext. It contains commentaries on the first five books of the Bible, and commentaries on the commentaries arranged in concentric rectangles around the page. Its many conflicting voices are arranged on the page  in a kind of hypertext. So are scholarly footnotes, with their numbered links between the main body of the text and supplementary scholarship.
