HARIZI, JUDAH BEN SOLOMON (13th cent.)

This article appears in Volume V12, Page 953 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: HAN-HEG
HARIZI, JUDAH BEN SOLOMON (13th cent.) , called also AL-
HARIZI
 , a Spanish Hebrew poet and traveller. He translated,, from the Arabic to Hebrew some of the works of
Maimonides
  (q.v.) and also of the Arab poet Iiariri. His own most consider-able
work
  was the Tahkemoni, composed between 1218 and 1220. This is written in Hebrew in unmetrical rhymes, in what is commonly termed " rhymed
prose
 ." It is a
series
  of humorous episodes, witty verses, and quaint applications of Scriptural texts. The episodes are bound together by the presence of thebrought to perfection the art of applying Hebrew to secular
satire
 , but he was also a brilliant literary critic and his makame on the Andalusian Hebrew poets is a fruitful source of information.
See, on the Tahkemoni, Kaempf, Nicht-andalusische Poesie andalusischer Dichter (
Prague
 , 1858). In that
work
  a considerable
section
  of the Tahkemoni is translated into
German
 . (I. A.)
