Nicomachean Ethics by Aristotle – Berlin, 1790. With signatures.
Two sections in one volume. Each has a separate cover page. With commentary by Yitzhak Satnov. First edition. Among those endorsing: The Pri Magadim. There are those who claim that the endorsement was falsified, since sages of that generation severely criticized and denounced the editor, such as: Rav Yitzhak Isaac Hever (student of the Gra), who called him (in his book, Magen V’Zina, p. 90) “that evil apikorus of Satnov”, or Rav Yehuda Leib Adil, the Magid of Slonim and colleague of the Gra, who writes about him in the introduction to his book Mayim Tehorim “Emptiness fills his mouth.” Signature of ownership of Wolf ben Yaakov Zvi. Wide margins. Signs of moths. Not bound. [11], 75, [1], 76-151 page. 20cm. Generally good condition.
