| Plot Summary of The Haskalah Movement in Russia |
|---|
"The Haskalah Movement in Russia, written in 1914, remains a seminal work on the culture and plight of Russian Jews prior to the Revolution. That the rational thinkers covered within these pages were instrumental in the establishment of Hebrew and Yiddish literature and publishing, as well as an influence on the creation of both Reform Judaism and Zionism, makes this work of especial importance in the study of modern Jewish history.
