Abstract


This paper contains biographical data of the copyist Vidal Saúl Satorre = Hayyim Migdolí, who copied at least two Bibles in Hebrew, which were dated at Cervera (1383) and Zaragoza (1404). Thanks to a thorough investigation through the archives, documentary evidence was produced which mentioned him as sporadically staying in Lérida (1353) and Cervera (1385), and rather more frequently, in Zaragoza in the course of two decades (1389-1411) during which he was referred to with the different names or spellings of Vidal Satorre, Vidal Saúl and Vidal Saúl Satorre. In spite of its conciseness, this information is of great interest due to the scarcity of the archival documents related to the copyists of Hebrew manuscripts in the Middle Ages, rather than to the knowledge of the artistic personality of that man.
