The Renascence Of Hebrew Literature 1743 to 1885 - Nahum Slouschz - Bog

""The Renascence of Hebrew Literature 1743 to 1885"" is a comprehensive historical account of the revival of Hebrew literature during the 18th and 19th centuries. Written by Nahum Slouschz, a prominent Hebrew scholar and writer, the book explores the cultural and social factors that led to the rebirth of Hebrew as a literary language after centuries of decline. Slouschz traces the evolution of Hebrew literature from the early Haskalah (Jewish Enlightenment) movement to the emergence of modern Hebrew literature in the late 19th century. He examines the works of key figures such as Moses Mendelssohn, Chaim Nachman Bialik, and Sholem Aleichem, and provides insightful analysis of their contributions to the development of Hebrew literature. The book also covers the challenges faced by Hebrew writers during this period, including censorship and the struggle to gain recognition in a literary world dominated by European languages. ""The Renascence of Hebrew Literature 1743 to 1885"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Hebrew literature and the cultural revival of the Jewish people.Bi-Mezulot Yam (""In the Depths of the Sea"") revives a terrible episode of the exodus of the Jews from Spain (1492). The refugees embarked on pirate vessels, where they were exploited pitilessly. The cupidity of the corsairs is insatiable. After despoiling the Jews of all they own, they sell them as slaves or cast them into the water. This is the lot that threatens to overtake a group of exiles on a certain ship. But the captain falls in love with the daughter of a Rabbi, a maiden of rare beauty. To rescue her companions, she pretends to yield to the solicitations of the captain, who promises to land the passengers safe and sound on the coast. He keeps his word, but the girl and her mother must stay with him.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
