Est: $300 - $500
The author (1819-99) was a prolific Hebrew writer, translator and historian. A graduate of the Yeshiva of Volozhin, his maskilic approach was combined with a firmly religious outlook in the spirit of Vilna’s moderate Haskalah, the city in which he spent his life. A harbinger of Zionism, Schulman’s love for the Land of Israel and his related literary activities, greatly assisted in the development of a modern Hebrew literature.
