Publishing Books in Early Modern Jewish Prague
Original language description
The chapter deals with the intricate problem of the policy of rabbinic approbations (haskamot, sg. haskamah) in the books printed in Hebrew characters in Prague at the turn of the seventeenth century. The author demonstrates that although there is no explicite evidence, the existing approbations and the publishing prgrammes of the Prague printers indicate that the Prague rabbinate, namely, the Maharal of Prague (Judah Leva ben Betsalel, ca. 1525-1609), intervened to the publishing policy and for example curbed the publication of kabbalistic works.
