FIRST EDITION, THE UNCENSORED ISSUE. Formerly in the library of the Valmadonna Trust.
ff. 120 (i.e. 118). Browned. Modern vellum. 4to. Vinograd, Cleves 1.


Cleves: The Widow Sizmann 1770

Following the polemic of Aaron Shimon of Copenhagen’s Or HaYashar published in 1769, the present work deals primarily with the author’s position regarding the Cleves Get Controversy, a causes-célèbres that came to involve most of the great rabbinic adjudicators of the day. The work includes opinions by Rabbis Jacob Emden and Ezekiel Landau.


This copy with pp. 31-2 present, usually removed due to the severity of language against the Rabbinate of Frankfurt a/Main.


See M. Carmilly-Weinberger, Censorship and Freeedom of Expression, pp. 168-70.
