Summary:"In the latter decades of the nineteenth century, the all-encompassing religious complexion and cohesiveness of Jewish communal life began to disintegrate
One response to the ensuing Jewish struggle for survival as a spiritual entity was the emergence of a modern Hebraic secular cultural tradition. This volume presents seventeen seminal essays by Israel's esteemed literary critic Gershon Shaked
All of them explore the evolution of that new tradition, tracing its major processes and identifying central stages in the development of its new canonical master-text."--BOOK JACKET
