Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: SOU-STE
STEINSCHNEIDER, MORITZ (1816-1907) , Jewish bibliographer, was born in Moravia in 1816. He was the most accomplished bibliographer in the
realm
  of Hebrew literature. His greatest
work
  was his Catalogue of the Hebrew Collection of the Bodleian Library,
Oxford
  ,(1852186o). In this masterly
work
  he settled many questions as to the locality, date and author-ship of early printed books, and provided a vast
mass
  of biographical materials. His Jewish Literature (published in
German
  in Ersch and Gruber in 185o, in
English
  in 1857, and in Hebrew in 1899) is a
complete
  survey of its subject. Steinschneider prepared many other catalogues (Leiden,
Munich
 , Hamburg and Berlin). He wrote much on Arabic literature, and was the author of
bibliographies
  on a
great
  variety of subjects. Among them may be named
bibliographies
  of Jewish mathematicians and travellers. His most extensive work after his Bodleian Catalogue was his treatise on Hebrew translations in the middle ages (Die hebraischen Ubersetzungen des Nfittelalters, 2 vols., 1893). Much of his work appeared in his periodical Hebraische Bibliographic (18591882). He died in Berlin in 1907. (I. A.)
