MORPURGO, Samson, [ben Joshua Moses] [1681-1740].
Shemesh Zedakah.[Sol Iustitia].
Venice: Vendramin, 1743..
2 Parts in 1. folio. titles within elaborate woodcut border. several woodcut ornaments. later half vellum (covers warped, paper partly peeling from edges & rear cover, second half of text dampstained, paper cockled). First Edition of this collection of responsa by the Italian rabbi and physician. "Morpurgo had connections with all the great scholars of his generation, who turned to him for counsel on complicated cases in the field of halakhah, among them Isaac Lampronti, who quotes Samson's rulings in his Pa?ad Yi??ak, Moses ?agiz, and Benjamin ha-Kohen of Reggio. His skill as a doctor in Ancona, recognized by both Jews and Christians, and his profound compassion, particularly toward the suffering poor, won him the love and respect of all. In 1730 a devastating influenza plague swept Ancona, and, despite the Church ban against Jewish doctors' treating the Christian sick, Samson distinguished himself in the care he gave to all the town's inhabitants. In consequence, Cardinal Lambertini publicly presented him in 1731 with a document which expressed his gratitude and his esteem for Samson's devotion." (Ency. Judaica)
