The correspondence between Shlomo Ha-Levi (Pablo de Santa Maria) and Isaac bar Sheshet as a historical source Authors Eleazar Gutwirth Tel Aviv University https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1149-9455 DOI: 10.2436/20.1006.01.94 Keywords: Jews in the Iberian Peninsula, Pablo de Santa Maria, Shlomo Ha-Levi, R. Isaac bar Sheshet, Jewish and converso authors Abstract Much attention has been devoted to the writings that Shlomo Ha-Levi/Pablo de Santa Maria (d. 1435) produced after his conversion to Christianity. However, there has been far less discussion of his early writings than of those from after his fortieth year. Even the one item from before then that has been studied to some extent has not received the same level of attention as his later works. The goal of this article is to redress the balance by focusing on his earlier phase, particularly his Hebrew correspondence with a famous Catalan senior rabbinic contemporary born in Barcelona: Rabbi Isaac bar Sheshet (d. Algiers 1408). Downloads Download data is not yet available. Downloads PDF Published 2025-07-09 How to Cite Gutwirth, E. (2025).
