Post-Incunable: Dina DeGarmi — Constantinople, ca. 1515 (Re'ah) — First Edition. A Foundational Work by the Ramban. - Post-Incunable: Dina DeGarmi — Constantinople, ca. 1515. First Edition. A Foundational Work by the Ramban. Dina DeGarmi, a concise halachic treatise by Rabbi Moshe ben Nachman (the Ramban), dedicated to the complex topic of indirect damages (grama) in Jewish civil law. This is likely the first halachic compostition, ever devoted exclusively to a single Talmudic sugya. Due to the scattered nature of the relevant laws throughout the Talmud and the depth of the topic, the Ramban did not suffice with his regular commentaries on the Talmudic tractates. Instead, he composed this independent work, in which he gathers all the relevant Talmudic passages, analyzes and compares them, and arrives at practical halachic conclusions. This pioneering treatise has become a foundational text in the study of practical Halachic law. It is frequently cited by halachic authorities, notably by the Siftei Kohen (Shach) in his commentary on the Shulchan Aruch. Printed in Constantinople, ca. 1515. First edition. 20 cm. Thick paper. Fine, new binding. Some marginal restorations on the final three leaves. Final page contains a few missing words completed in manuscript. Light stains. Good condition.
