Abstract:
Interest was aroused recently concerning a booklet of 28 folios entitled Tabula in universum indicans libros singularum disciplinarum. Formerly considered a 17th-century catalogue, it actually reflects the contents of the library of the Collège de Sorbonne in the mid-16th century. A project, directed by Gilbert Fournier, will identify the authors and works mentioned in the document and localize the books in Parisian and French libraries. Entrusted with the rubric Rabbini Hebraeorum, I quickly realized that I needed to work simultaneously on the catalogue and the dispersion of the library of the Collège. This back and forth process led to the discovery of the 1529 Bomberg Ashkenazic Siddur.
