About This Item
[64], 200, [10]; 201 [=203], [4] pp.First edition of the Dutch translation of Léon de Modenes Historia degli riti hebraici (1637). The translation was made by the minor Utrecht poet Abraham Godart (fl. 1666-1683) after the French translation which had appeared in 1682 in The Hague (Céremonies et Coustumes
parmi les Juifs, The Hague, Adriaan Moetjens, 1682) and which was made by Richard Simon (1638-1712), a French priest, member of the Oratorians, who was an influential biblical critic, orientalist and controversialist - Simon was early at odds with the Port-Royalists and Antoine Arnauld himself - using many pseudonyms such as here the pseudonym Simon Ville.The French translator Richard Simon added his own comments in a separate book, Comparaison des ceremonies des Juifs which was also printed in 1682 in The Hague by the same publisher of Modenes work, Adriaan Moetjens. The Dutch translator Abraham Godart also translated Simons additional text and the Amsterdam printer Timotheus ten Hoorn not only combined these two works in one book, but also added the frontispiece and the plates of the 1682 French translation (in reverse). At least six further editions of the two translations appeared from 1693 till 1744. Binding a little dust-soiled, somewhat waterstained. Overall in good condition.l cf.
