Sefer Shaarei Teshuvah
Shaarei Teshuvah was unanimously and enthusiastically accepted by Jewish congregations worldwide as a sacred work that guides man to repent wholeheartedly to his Father in heaven. “One who reads it shall be wise to increase his holiness and piety, and his heart shall hasten to return, for holy words penetrate the heart… Fortunate is the man who merits to learn it every day.”
(Shem Hagedolim by the Chida)
Post Incunable
Hebrew books printed within the first 50 years [1450-1500] following the invention of the printing press earned the title incunable, whereas books printed shortly after, in the early 16th century, are called post-incunable.
The Fano Publishing House was established in the post-incunable era, and the books printed by its presses are exceedingly rare and valuable.
