Joseph Derenbourg, or Joseph Naftali Derenburg (21 August 1811 - 29 July 1895) was a Franco-German orientalist. He was born in Mainz (then French-controlled), as a youngest son of the lawyer Jacob Derenburg. According to the 1911 ''Encyclopædia Britannica'', "He was a considerable force in the educational revival of Jewish education in France." He made great contributions to the knowledge of Saadia, and planned a complete edition of Saadia's works in Arabic and French. A large part of this work appeared during his lifetime. He also wrote an ''Essai sur l'histoire et la géographie de la Palestine'' (Paris, 1867). This was an original contribution to the history of the Jews and Judaism in the time of Christ, and has been much used by later writers on the subject (e.g., by Emil Schürer). He also published in collaboration with his son Hartwig Derenbourg, ''Opuscules et traités d'Abou-l-Walid'' (with translation, 1880); ''Deux Versions hebraïques du livre de Kalilah et Dimnah'' (1881), and a Latin translation of the same story under the title ''Joannis de Capua directorium vitae humanae'' (1889); ''Commentaire de Maïmonide sur la Mischnah Seder Tohorot'' (Berlin, 1886-1891); and edited the second edition of Silvestre de Sacy's ''Séances de Hariri'' (Paris, Hachette, 1853). He died in 1895 at Bad Ems. == See also== *Hartwig Derenbourg 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joseph Derenbourg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
