Hebrew Poems from Spain
Forward by Raymond Scheindlin
Author Information - Publication Details - Contents
The poems of the Golden Age of Spanish Jewry (950-1200) offer a vivid representation of contemporary Jewish life as well as a deep consciousness of Israel’s relationship with God and an intense concern with the fate of the Jewish people. This volume conveys the greatness of that literature through the work of thirteen poets.
David Goldstein was Curator of Hebrew Books and Manuscripts at the British Library. His translation of The Wisdom of the Zohar, also published by the Littman Library, was awarded the Webber Prize in 1987.
Raymond Scheindlin is Professor of Medieval Hebrew Literature at the Jewish Theological Seminary in New York.
