Monuments of Paper and Parchment is a visual and historical work dedicated to the brief yet extraordinary story of Hebrew printing in Portugal. Between 1487 and 1496 - from Faro to Lisbon and Leiria - three Hebrew printing houses were active, producing a remarkable body of work that accounted for approximately two-thirds of all printing in Portugal during that period. The story begins with the Pentateuch printed in Faro (1487), the very first book printed in Portugal in any language and concludes with the Almanach Perpetuum by R. Abraham Zacuto (1496), the first scientific book printed in the country. A total of fifteen known Hebrew incunabula were produced in Portugal. These are here contextualized and presented with full-color, high-resolution images, many of them published for the first time, reproduced from rare copies held in major libraries such as British, Cambridge, El Escorial, Frankfurt, Oxford, Palatina, Vatican, and others. This edition is designed to appeal to both scholars and general readers interested in the history of the book, Sephardic Jewish heritage, and Portuguese cultural history. Combining scholarly rigor with visual elegance, it also makes for a striking gift or coffee-table volume. A tribute to the intellectual legacy of Portuguese Jewry before the 1496 expulsion - and an invitation to rediscover monuments not made of stone, but of paper and parchment.
