Deinard had a penchant for publishing anti-Chassidic tracts. He states in the introduction that he acquired this heretofore unpublished work from the library of the Author's relative, M. Landsberg. Levinsohn (1788-1860) was the leading figure of early Russian Haskalah. In addition, Deinard also published the polemical anti-Chassidic remarks taken from the introduction of R. Joseph Steinhardt's Zichron Yoseph originally published in Fuerth, 1773
