Second edition with numerous additions of the Jahrzeit of holy zaddikim from early generations to the present. Zikkaron Zaddikim has approbations from R.Menahem Sofer, R. Abraham Solomon ben Elijah Katz, and R. Abraham Judah ben Isaac Meir ha-Kohen Schwartz, brother of the author. There is an introduction from R.Schwartz and the text, which is arranged by month and day with entries for leading rabbis by their Jahrzeit.
R. Phinehas (Pinhas) Selig (Sigmund) Ha-Kohen Schwartz (1877–1944) was a Hungarian scholar. He was born in Felsvis and died in the Holocaust. His most important work is Shem ha-Gedolim me-Erez Hagar (3 vols., 1913, 1915), a series of biographies of Hungarian rabbis and a bibliographical list of their works. In 1935 and 1941 he published supplements in two pamphlets (all photocopied 1950). Despite its many errors, the book still serves as a biographical source for the rabbis of Hungary. At the end of Zikkaron Zaddikim is an index of the entries, also organized by month, but here entries are alphabetic within the month.
Between 1932 and 1935, R. Schwartz published a Torah periodical entitled Or Torah and several valuable works on specific topics, including: Yizrah Or (1925, photocopy 1952), the order of the blessing of the sun; Givat Pinhas (1926), on the laws of the slaughter and examination of animals; Ateret Paz (1928), on the laws of the priestly blessing; Minhat Omer (1931, photocopy 1969), on the laws of the counting of the Omer; Temimei Derekh (1935, 2nd ed. Szatmar, 1947, photocopy in German, no date), on the laws of the blessing and prayers on going on a journey; Minhah Hadashah (1937, photocopy N. Y. 1969), topics connected with Shavuot; Shulhan Arukh Yoreh De'ah (1938), on the laws of the redemption of a firstborn, together with his own novellae on that topic. A detailed list of his works was published by N. Ben-Menahem in Aresheth, 4 (1966), 427–35. |
