CLASSICS. AMUDEI GOLAH-SMA"K CREMONA 1556
Amudei Golah- Sefer Mitzvos Koton, by R. Yitzchok Ben R. Moshe of Corbeil. This version differs from the first edition printed in Constantinople in 1515 and also has additional glosses, additions and omissions.
The French Tosafist, R. Yitzchok of Corbeil, was a son-in-law and student of R. Yechiel of Paris. He also studied at the Yeshiva of the Tosafists at Evreux. This compendium lists all the Mitzvos applicable nowadays, and gives a short synopsis with pertinent halachic details. It is divided into seven parts, corresponding to the seven days of the week, so that it could be reviewed regularly. The author intended it to be of popular usage, thus he interspersed within it many Agaddic passages, moral maxims and ethical teachings which enhanced its appeal. It is accepted as an authoritative halachic source and is much cited by later Poskim including the Tur.
