COLLEGIO RABBINICO ITALIANO
- COLLEGIO RABBINICO ITALIANO
- COLLEGIO RABBINICO ITALIANO, Italian rabbinical college, the
first modern institution of its kind, inaugurated in 1829 at Padua under
the name Istituto Convitto Rabbinico through the efforts of I.S. Reggio
and under the direction of L. Della Torre and S.D. Luzzatto. Among its
alumni were L. Cantoni, S. Gentilomo, A. Lattes, E. Lolli, F. Luzzatto,
A. Mainster, and M. Mortara. After Luzzatto and Della Torre's deaths,
the institute underwent a series of crises and closed in 1871. It was
reopened in Rome under its above name in 1887 and was directed by M.M.
Ehrenreich. In 1899, after a period of suspended activity, it was moved
to Florence under the direction of S.H. Margulies, with H.P. Chajes and
I. Elbogen among its teachers; under them the college flourished. Among
its alumni were E.S. Artom, U. Cassuto, D. Disegni, A. Pacifici, and D.
Prato, who all exerted a marked influence on Italian Judaism. After the
death of Margulies in 1922 the college, whether in Florence or in Rome,
was never the same again. Back in Rome in 1934 and directed by the rabbi
of the Rome community, R.A. Sacerdote, the collegio had U. Cassuto, I.
Kahn, and D. Lattes among its teachers. After being closed during the
later stages of the Fascist
regime, the college was reopened in 1955. It published the Rivista
Israelitica from 1904 until 1915, and the Annuario di Studi
Ebraici, at intervals 1935–1969.
