Description
Key Features
Revealer of Secrets was published in 1819 and serves as the first Hebrew novel, marking a watershed moment in the development of modern Hebrew literature.
The novel functions as a parody disguised as a hasidic holy book, using satire to critique Hasidism's teachings and religious practices during the Enlightenment period.
Perl's work captures the ideological conflict between Haskalah advocates and the hasidic revival movement that defined nineteenth-century Eastern European Jewish culture.
Published by Routledge, this edition makes Perl's foundational text accessible to scholars and readers interested in Hebrew literature and Jewish intellectual history.
The novel demonstrates how Hebrew writers used parody and linguistic play to engage in debates about modernisation, religious authority and cultural identity.
