Eliezer ben Solomon Ashkenazi

Eliezer ben Solomon Ashkenazi was a Rabbi and Talmudical scholar born in Poland about the beginning of the 19th century, who resided afterward in Tunis. He published at Metz in 1849, under the title Dibre Hakamim ("Words of [the] Wise"), a selection of 11 ancient manuscripts:

S. Munk has written an introduction to this collection, which contains also, as an appendix, a French translation of Yesodot ha-Maskil by "H. B."

Ashkenazi published also Ta'am Zekenim ("Taste [of] Old Men"), edited by R. Kirchheim, a collection of old manuscripts and prints dealing with Jewish literature and history in the Middle Ages (Frankfort-on-the-Main, 1854).
