R. Solomon ibn Adret (c.1235-c.1310) of Barcelona, Catalonia, was a disciple of the cousins R. Jonah and R. Moses Nachmanides of Gerona. After the departure of Nachmanides for the Land of Israel in the year 1267, Adret became the undisputed leader and spokesman of Spanish Jewry. His “chidushim” or Talmudic novellae to Tractates Berachoth, Gitin and Chulin, along with his teacher Nachmanides’ novellae to Bava Bathra, issued in the same year by Bomberg, remained the only “chidushim” from the school of Nachmanides to be published for roughly the next two centuries.
