Girona Judaica collection

Poemes de Meixul·lam de Piera. Girona s. XIII

2008

A collection of poems by a disciple of Mossé ben Nahman, popularly known as Vides of Girona, who was also one of the leading figures of the city's Jewish community. The verses were translated and edited by the late Dr Josep Ribera Florit and represent one of the finest examples of Hebrew poetry in medieval Catalonia. In this volume, Meshullam of Piera presents his cryptic and intellectually sophisticated poetry, which earned him considerable recognition in his own time.
