T...Sorry that I didn't get to this until today. The source for this particular excerpt in the post itself is relatively unimportant (although I think it's from 1884). It was an oft-repeated story, that as far as I can tell first appears in the book Felix Mendelssohn und seine Zeit (1859) by Heinrich Eduard Jacob. Berthold Aurbach also told the story in a piece called "Wie der Weltweise Moses Mendelssohn seine Frau Gewann", which appeared in 1879, but according to a secondary source also appeared in 1860 in the Illustrierten Deutschen Volkskalender. All told, it seems that the late 1850s are when the story makes its appearance into print, and seems to have become popular in English beginning in the 1880s.<br /><br />In any case, the way it is presented in the Felix Mendelssohn biography is that the story is a Mendelssohn family legend.S.http://onthemainline.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12600498.post-58904387276148018662010-02-18T05:08:46.975-05:002010-02-18T05:08:46.975-05:00The Neu-Sandecer Rov, I believe.The Neu-Sandecer Rov, I believe.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12600498.post-55095926409006153622010-02-17T15:47:56.307-05:002010-02-17T15:47:56.307-05:00Hanoch Teller tells the same story about some chas...Hanoch Teller tells the same story about some chassidish figure being lame.
