It might be possible to identify Giuseppe Colorni with a namesake who worked in the service of the Duke of Mantua Charles II (D. Jütte, The Age of Secrecy: Jews, Christians, and the Economy of Secrets, p. 214). According to the catalogue of the 16th century Hebrew books preserved at the Biblioteca Casanatense in Rome, between 1661 and 1670, a Deodato Segre was owner of other books which were taken by the Roman Inquisition, see Annalisa Di Nola (ed.), Le cinquecentine ebraiche: catalogo, passim. The below is from Fabrizio Quaglia: Deodato Segre sold to a mr. Gioseppo (whose surname begins with “Bo”), and not that someone sold the book to him, “questa concordantia” (it refers to the Hebrew Me’ir nativ’s subtitle קונקורדאנשייש) at the price of two Spanish “doppie” (overwritten to “una doppia”). Below, in bigger characters and written by a different hand, the mentioned “Gioseppe” affirms that he had this book from “dalli eredi” (from the heirs)... Deodato Segre could be the Piedmontese rabbi Netan’el ben Aharon Ya‘aqov Segre (Deodato is Italian for Netan’el): “Born in the seventeenth century in Chieri, Savoy; died in 1691 at Cento, whither he had emigrated with his father. He was the author of a collection of responsa which he named ‘Ezer Ya‘aḳob after his father, and which he dedicated to Abraham Rovigo. The work is extant in manuscript.” Source: Jewish Encylopedia, XI, p. 157. If he was a Rabbi this could explain because he owned the four Hebrew books now in the Casanatense library at Rome, as reported in Footprints. Cento is a small town near Ferrara, but it had once a not unremarkable Jewish presence. The “doppia di Spagna” is a golden coin, circulating in the Duchy of Milan from the age of the emperor Charles V until the Hasburg sovereigns Maria Teresa and her son Giuseppe.- Owner
