Bibliographia
Gersonideana an Annotated List of Writings by and about R. Levi Ben Gershom
Menachem Kellner
This bibliography was originally published in Gad Freudenthal (ed.), Studies
on Gersonides, A Fourteenth-Century Jewish Philosopher-Scientist (Leiden:
Brill, 1992) and appears on this website thanks to the kind permission
of Gad Freudenthal and Brill.
In most cases I have given a summary description of the item. No summary
is given in cases where the contents of the enry were made clear by the
title, or if I had not seen the item myself. Where appropriate, and to
save the need of cross references, and to make each several different
headings; in such cases, the descriptions relate to the subject of heading.
I have, by and large, not included encyclopedia articles and the like.
Wherever possible I have translated as opposed to transliterating titles
of works by or about Gersonides in Hebrew; all of his works were written
in that language. Items by the same author in any given section are listed
chronologically by date of publication. The indexes of names of modern
editors, translators, and students of Gersonides allow one to trace works
by a given scholar classed under different headings.
I would like to make this bibliography an on-going project and invite
colleagues to send me comments, corrections, and additions, and especially
offprints of their future publications on Gersonides. I will keep the
bibliography updated. My address is: kellner@research.haifa.ac.il
I would like to thank Bernard R. Goldstein for his kind and extensive
help and advice. Gad Freudenthal has given unstintingly of his time and
effort. Their assistance is reflected on every page of this bibliography.

A word on tranliteration: for technical reasons I have not used diacritical
marks. Thus, “h” stands for either “heh” or “het” and “z” for either “zayin”
or “tzadi”. In preparing this article for posting on the internet some
French accents may have been lost.
I have organized the material under the following headings:
