Book Summary
Oppression and suffering sharpened Jewish self-consciousness and this was given expression in the first works of fiction in modern Hebrew literature. This volume studies the work of Hebrew novelists following the death of Abraham Mapu in 1867. These twenty years correspond with the last phase of the Hebrew movement of Enlightenment, the Haskalah.
