First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. First edition. Small quarto. [aster.]-2[aster.]4 A-3M4 (= 240 leaves). [16], 464pp. Contemporary Dutch vellum (very slightly bowed) panelled in blind with central stamped vignette, spine with raised bands and elegant calligraphic title. Title vignette depicting the arms of Amsterdam. A few old marginal annotations. Various old library stamps at title, and bottom margins of two text leaves (that on the final leaf bleeds through to text on recto). A very good copy, text clean and fresh throughout, attractively bound. First Latin edition of this late medieval chronicle of Jewish history, "one of the outstanding achievements of Hebrew literature in the Renaissance" (Enc. Jud.), reprinted in 1680 under the Hebrew title, Shevet Yehudah (The Tribe of Judah). First published in Hebrew at Adrianople in 1554, it was followed by various Hebrew or Yiddish (Judaeo-German) editions prior to Gentius' version; a Spanish version appeared at Amsterdam in 1640. During the 1520s, Solomon ibn Verga (1460-1554) wrote his Shevet Yehudah (The Tribe of Judah), a compilation of accounts of the persecutions undergone by Jews from the destruction of the Second Temple until his own day. At times, the author intersperses the historical account with disputations and deliberations, of which some are authentic and others imaginary. The author drew his historical material from Josippon, the Sefer ha-Kabbalah of Abraham ibn Daud, from the narrative of Nathan ha-Babli, and from Maimonides' letters including Iggeret Teiman. He also utilized a brief Hebrew chronicle dealing with the general expulsions and religious persecutions, probably that of Profiat Duran and consulted the writings Isaac Abrabanel. For his own period, he mentions some of the events which he heard of or witnessed and for which he is sometimes the only source. The work has special importance in the annals of Jewish historical thought. The thoughts and reflections which the author interweaves in his imaginary discussions, that is in the literary and not the historical section of the work, reflect his dissatisfaction with the traditional outlook and opinions of the Middle Ages. The Orientalist and diplomat Georg Gentius (1618-1687) was born in Dhame, Saxony and came to study with Heinsius, De Dieu, Golius, and L'Empereur in Leiden, as well as the rabbis of Amsterdam. Among the latter, Menasseh ben Israel respected Gentius for the courtesy he displayed in his scholarly and personal dealings with the Jews, and asked him to complete a Latin translation of the Shevet Yehudah which he himself had begun. With this publication, dedicated to the Hamburg consuls, Gentius created a larger public for one of the most fascinating historical works of the Hebrew Renaissance, [and] heralded a new era in Jewish history by its critical and empirical approach to the phenomena of history.

After the conquest of Málaga in 1487 he raised funds for ransoming Jews taken captive there; following the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492 he settled in Lisbon. When large numbers of Jews in Portugal were forcibly baptised, he was compelled to live as a converso, eventually moving to Italy in 1506. His Shevet Yehudah, composed in the 1520s, is 'a compilation of accounts of the persecutions undergone by the Jews from the destruction of the Second Temple until his own day. At times, the author intersperses the historical account with disputations and deliberations, of which some are authentic and others imaginary. By means of these, he tried to clarify the problem of the hatred against the Jews, to examine their special destiny, to offer answers to the claims of their enemies, to rebuke his people for their social and moral faults, and to voice his objection against certain philosophical opinions For his own period, he mentions some of the events which he heard of or witnessed and for which he is sometimes the only source. The work has special importance in the annals of Jewish historical thought [it] is one of the outstanding achievements of the Hebrew literature of the Renaissance' (Encyclopaedia Judaica). This Latin translation was undertaken by the German orientalist and diplomat Georg Gentius (16181687).Provenance: from the library of Pierre-Daniel Huet (16301721), Bishop of Soissons and later of Avranches, a French scholar, antiquary, scientist, and philosopher, one of the most brilliant and renowned intellectuals during the reign of Louis XIV, 'whose incisive skepticism, particularly as embodied in his cogent attacks on René Descartes, greatly influenced contemporary philosophers' (Britannica). Huet's father was a convert from Calvinism, but he was nonetheless educated by a Protestant pastor as his tutor during some of his first academic years. He studied at the Jesuit school in his native Caen, before moving to Paris where he forged a close friendship with Gabriel Naudé, librarian of the Mazarin Library. In 1652 he visited the court of Queen Christina of Sweden, in whose library he discovered some fragments of a commentary on St Matthew by Origen, which led to an edition of Origen in 1668. He later assisted the French bishop Jacques Bossuet, tutor to the Dauphin Louis, son of Louis XIV, and edited the celebrated series of Delphin Classics. Though not a Jesuit himself, Huet spent his last years in a Jesuit house in Paris, and bequeathed his library of some eight thousand books to the Jesuit College in Paris. With the expulsion of the Jesuits in 1763, the library reverted to Huet's heirs who sold much of it to the Bibliothèque du Roi, some volumes being sold off.The rear flyleaf bears notes in Huet's neat hand in Latin and Hebrew, dated 19 February 1680, which clearly demonstrate his close engagement with Ibn Verga's text. These include, for example, notes on Ibn Verga himself as well as on Abraham Ibn Ezra, Maimonides, the Talmud, and the Jewish temples in Jerusalem. A note to the front flyleaf relates to persecutions suffered by the Jews in Spain and Portugal.STCN 089893883; USTC 1821019. Language: Latin.
