An Ashkenazi rabbi imported to serve the Jews of Italy, Rabbi Meir mi Padua was able to swim against the tide of his times and establish himself as a respected halachic authority. Rabbi Wein analyzes the most noteworthy rulings of Rabbi Meir's career: his role in establishing the burgeoning industry of Jewish book publishing and his boycott of the ports of Ancona in the aftermath of anti-Semitic violence.
