Manuscript, Binder of Letters and Torah Novellae [Poznań District, C. 1830], Early 19th Century
The manuscript before us includes an anthology of letters and Torah novellae by the writer, and by leading Later Authorities.
Letters: At the beginning and end of the manuscript, there are about fifteen letters signed: "Itzik Leib Lichtenstein." There is also a letter from 1832 to his rabbi, "My teacher Rabbi Shimon HaLevi." Apparently this is Rabbi Shimon Segal, Av Beit Din of Fordon and Rogzon, author of Sha'ar Shimon, brother-in-law and disciple of Rabbi Akiva Eiger.
Novellae: The manuscript includes the writer's novellae, as well as novellae by other rabbis: "Topic: Tevach Chiluk, by the Av Beit Din of Lissa" [possibly referring to the author of Netivot HaMishpat?] "from the gaon, my teacher Rabbi Yonantan" [Eibenschutz?]; song of praise and blessing for his rabbi "Rabbi Gershon [Asch] son of the great gaon Rabbi Tuviah [Av Beit Din of Zempelburg, author of Et U'Barzel with glosses called "HaTzur Leveno, " as above] for his 40th birthday.
