Offenbach: Bonaventura de la Naye 1720
The author (d.1136) was a Spanish philosopher and mystic, considered the principal source of geographical knowledge among the Jews of the Middle Ages. “(Abraham bar Hiya) was the first philosopher to write in Hebrew and the first to present Ptolemaic astronomy extensively in that language.
