Its reception in that century is studied as is the reception of one of the major figures of the early Haskalah, Isaac Euchel, and of one of the important German Enlightenment poets and philosophers, Johann Gottfried Herder, in the 19th-century Haskalah. \u003cbr\u003eThe study of reception continues on the language of the sublime and the poetic imagery used in Haskalah, \u003ci\u003emelitzah, \u003c\/i\u003e as well as on the three major journals of Haskalah as instruments of change and of disseminating the Haskalah ideology. Finally, the aftermath of the Haskalah is addressed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Moshe Pelli\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0761852034\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780761852032\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University Press of America\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/16\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 266\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.70d","brand":"Moshe Pelli","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45481727000831,"sku":"9780761852032","price":51.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_363a6073-fb8b-46f4-90f7-da22a6ecbab8.jpg?v=1715987495","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/haskalah-and-beyond-moshe-pelli-9780761852032","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
