Excerpt from Leopold Zunz: His Life and Times One of the outstanding Jewish literary develop ments of the nineteenth century is closely connected with the-name of Yom Tob Lippmann Zunz more familiarly known as Leopold Zunz. This was the employment of a new method in Jewish scholarship. Hitherto Jewish scholarship had been almost entirely one - sided. The study of the Talmud, for instance, was with few exceptions limited to the knowledge of its contents to the complete neglect of its sociological background and historical growth. The age of Enlightenment introduced by Mendelssohn in the 18th century did not bring any real improvement in this respect as the Haskalah movement had an entirely different aim, to make the Jews acquaint with general culture. Lack of comprehension of the historical development of the Jewish people and its literature remained therefore as stron ly marked as before. The method introduced by tuuz, however, completely revolutionized Jewish learning, to such an extent as to make it possible to speak of Modern Jewish Scholarship. A record of the life and work of such a man cannot fail to be of interest. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Leopold Zunz: His Life and Times After his father's death Yom Tob was sent to the Free School at Wolfenbuttel which had been founded by the philanthropic family Samson (hence its name "Samson'sche Freischule"). It was a home with a Beth Ha-Midrash attached, and Zunz attended the latter which differed little from a heder, since no other subject was taught but Bible and Talmud. Before long, however, conditions at this school changed for the better. In the year 1807 its whole system of education was reorganized under the direction of Samuel Meyer Ehrenberg, one of the enlightened Measefim (writers in the periodical Measef). He introduced secular studies into the curriculum and improved methods of teaching so that, when Zunz left the school in the year 1809, he had a firm grounding in Bible, Talmud and the Hebrew language. His Further Training From the year 1809 until 1815, Zunz attended the Gymnasium at Wolfenbuttel, and prepared himself for the University. At the same time he taught at the Samson Free School in which he had previously been a pupil. In the year 1815 he left Wolfenbuttel for Berlin to take up his studies at the University. History, philology and mathematics were his main subjects, and he earned his livelihood by giving private instruction. It was at the University that Zunz became inspired with the idea which was to lead to the opening of a new era of Jewish scholarship and to establish his fame for ever - this was the "Science of Judaism" (Wissenschaft des Judentums). Founder of the "Science of Judaism" What is the "Science of Judaism"? What is its method? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
