Solomon Löwisohn

[3] The boy showed unusual talents; by the age of 13, he had already completely mastered the 24 books of the Tanakh and possessed a rare skill in Hebrew.

His first major work, a dialogue on Hebrew grammar between David Kimḥi and Joel Brill entitled Siḥah be-ʻolam ha-neshamot, was published in 1811.

[3] In 1814, he accepted the position of corrector at the printing establishment of Anton Edler von Schmid in Vienna, but gave up his post in 1820.

[2] Löwisohn's other works include Meḥkere erets, on the topography of the Tanakh, and Dikduk leshon ha-Mishna (1815), an essay on the language of the Mishnah.

[1] His most important works are Melitsat Yeshurun (1816), an analysis of the poetics of the Bible,[3] and Vorlesungen über die neuere Geschichte der Juden (1820), of which the first volume only was published.
