biography

Yeshayahu Bassan, The son of Rabbi Yisrael Hezekiah Bassan,  born in Verona in about 1673. Studied in Mantua with Rabbi Moshe Zechet (RMS), and after his death at the beginning of 1697, he continued his studies with Rabbi Yehuda Briel, Member of the Tribunal In Mantua and head the Yeshiva. After being ordained by the Mantua sages, he returned to Verona and studied at Rabbi Mordechai Bassan's meeting.

In 1701 he married Yocheved, the daughter of  Rabbi Binyamin Cohen Vitali , the rabbi of Reggio Emilia (Rigio), who was the son-in-law of his great-grandfather Rabbi. His father-in-law also ordained him for the rabbinate, and Rabbi Isaiah Basan settled in Reggio Emilia.

He lived in Padua from 1715 to 1723 and served as a rabbi in the local yeshiva, where  was the Ramchal, and others. During the polemic in Italy against Ramchal, Rabbi Isaiah Bassan was his chief protector; He conducted correspondence with overseas rabbis involved in the affair, and was even accused of covering up his student. According to Meir Benihu, Rabbi Yeshaya Bassan is the one who collected and preserved the fees for polemics, which are used for polemical research to this day.

In the year 1723, he returned to Reggio Emilia to help his father-in-law's  in managing the rabbinical affairs of the city. After the death of his father-in-law on the 16th of Tevet (early 1730), he was appointed as the rabbi of the city in his place, until his death. During the last two years of his life he became ill and for a year spent in Verona for medical treatment, he returned to his city and died there on the 2nd in Nissan 1739.

His son Rabbi Israel Benjamin Bassan (1701–1790) was one of the most prominent Jewish-Italian poets of his time, and after his death he was appointed Rabbi of Reggio Emilia.

His brother-in-law was Rabbi Menashe Yehoshua Padua, Rabbi of Modena and son of Rabbi Yehuda Matzlay Padua
