In 4, pp. 12. Br. muta coeva. Studio relativo agli Giudei di Roma. L'A. ritiene di dover rettificare l'idea degli storici medievali: 'facilmente si crede che l'esclusione dai diritti civili e politici, dal commercio sociale, dagli uffici scientifici, abbia avuto l'effetto, bensi' naturale, d'isolare i giudei nella scienza. Ma f…ortunatamente il desiderio scientifico, piu' che ogni vapore, si estende con forza intrinseca ed atterra i piu' saldi ostacoli che potrebbero erigerglisi contro. Ad illustrazione del nostro assunto servira' Giuda Romano, benche' tutto cio' che sappiamo di lui appena si stenda piu' in la' dei titoli delle sue opere.'. ITA.

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. No Jacket. In Latin and Hebrew. 282 x 215 x 110 mm. 1,907 full pages. Most of the pages consist of two columns and so the numbering is mostly by columns. Hence there are c. 4,000 columns. The pagination is as follows: (4), CXXXI, 656 columns, (1), columns 661 to 3104, LXXXIII, (1) LXXX to LL [LL…=100], VIII, 32, (2), 25. This is a reproduction of the 1852-1860 Berlin edition.The black and gold title on the spine is mostly effaced. Internally is excellent condition. Approximately 15,000 items are listed with full author- title descriptions, collation and very extensive notes and references, as well as an index to the Hebrew titles of all books. A massive bibliography cataloging over three centuries of Hebrew manuscripts and books collected in the Bodleian Library, Oxford. Moravian bibliographer, Moritz Steinschneider (1816-1907) is noted as the greatest recorder of Jewish literature with this work establishing his fame. Moritz Steinschneider received his early instruction in Hebrew from his father, Jacob Steinschneider (b. 1782; d. March 1856), who was both an expert Talmudist and well versed in secular science. The house of the elder Steinschneider was the rendezvous of a few progressive Hebraists, among whom was his brother-in-law, the physician and writer Gideon Brecher. At the age of 6 Steinschneider was sent to the public school, which was still an uncommon choice for Jews in the Austro-Hungarian empire at the time; and at the age of 13 he became the pupil of Rabbi Nahum Trebitsch, whom he followed to Mikulov, Moravia in 1832. In 1833, in order to continue his Talmudic studies, he went to Prague, where he remained until 1836. In 1836 Steinschneider went to Vienna to continue his studies, and, on the advice of his friend Leopold Dukes, he devoted himself especially to Oriental and Neo-Hebrew literatures, and most particularly to bibliography, which would become his principal focus. His countryman Abraham Benisch and Moravian Albert Löwy also were studying there at the time. In Lowy's room in 1838 they inaugurated among intimate (and lifelong) friends a proto-Zionist society called "Die Einheit". The society's objective was to promote the welfare of the Jewish people, and in order to realize this objective, they advocated the settlement of Palestine by Austrian Jews. Their objective had to be kept secret for fear it would be put down by the government; England became regarded as the country likely to welcome the new movement. In 1841 Lowy was sent to London as an emissary of the Students' Jewish National Society; Benisch also arrived in England the same year. Somewhat abandoned, Steinschneider would later withdraw from the society completely in 1842, viewing the scheme as impractical compared to his studies. As a Jew on the continent, Steinschneider was prevented from entering the Oriental Academy; and for the same reason he was unable even to obtain permission to make extracts from the Hebrew books and manuscripts in the Imperial Library, Vienna. In spite of these drawbacks, he continued his studies in Arabic, Syriac, and Hebrew with Professor Kaerle at the Catholic Theological Faculty of the University. He had at this juncture the intention of adopting the rabbinical career. In Vienna, as formerly in Prague, he earned a livelihood by giving lessons, teaching Italian among other subjects. For political reasons he was compelled to leave Vienna and decided to go to Berlin; but, being unable to obtain the necessary passport, he remained in Leipzig. At the university there he continued the study of Arabic under Professor Fleischer. At this time, he began the translation of the Qur'an into Hebrew and collaborated with Franz Delitzsch in editing Aaron ben Elijah's 'Etz Chayyim (Leipzig, 1841); but the rules of the Austrian censorship did not permit the publication of his name as coeditor. While in Leipzig he contributed a number of articles on Jewish and Arabic literature to Pierer's Universal Encyklopädie . . . .
