Publisher Description:
The poet Abraham Shlonsky can be regarded as the main architect of Jewish Modernism and Hebrew secular culture. In this crucial contribution, Ari Ofengenden disentangles Shlonsky's work from Zionist readings and shows how his poetics redeem experiences of political displacement, exile and alienation through a playful enigmatic fusion of Modernist European poetry and biblical and rabbinic influences.
