实物特征
总结:Simon B. Scheyer is one of the earliest and most distinguished pioneers of the scholarly study of medieval Jewish philosophy, especially of Maimonides, some of whose works are still used by scholars today. Despite his role as a precursor and his scholarly excellence, he has been all but forgotten by history and has not been the subject of even a single entry in any work of reference. The purpose of this article is to offer Simon Scheyer the place that is his due in the history of Jewish scholarship. I sketch his (tragic) biography, reconstituted from printed and archival sources, and present his work.
