    Extractions: In 1913, Agnon left Israel for Germany where he remained for 11 years. Zionist young people liked his combination of traditional and modern ways of writing. In Germany Agnon met the wealthy businessman Salman Schocken, who became his admirer, supporter, and publisher. Free from financial worries Agnon lived comfortably, wrote much, and collected rare and valuable Hebrew books. This happy period ended in 1924 when a fire swept his home and destroyed most of his books and manuscripts. In the same year, Agnon settled again in Jerusalem, but again his valuable library was destroyed, this time when his home was plundered during the Arab riots of 1929. In 1931, he became recognized as one of the central figures of modern Hebrew literature when he published the first edition of his collected works, including the folk-epic The Bridal Canopy, considered to be a cornerstone of modern Hebrew literature. Running through his stories is the ever-recurring conflict between old and new, and many of his stories have a nightmarish quality, as they leave the reader wondering what is real and what is fantasy. Characters talk to themselves in an attempt to understand themselves and their puzzling surroundings. In A Guest for the Night, an anonymous narrator visits his town in Galicia after an absence of many years, and witnesses its desolation. The factual core of this story was Agnon's own visit to his native town of Buczacz in 1930. Although the novel mirrors the hopelessness of the Jewish world during this time, Agnon even in his youth had called Buczacz a "city of the dead."

    Extractions: Shmuel Yosef Agnon (1888-1970) was considered by many as the foremost novelist in modern Hebrew letters. Best known to the world as SY Agnon, he was born Shmuel Yosef Czaczkes in Buczacz, Galicia, where he was raised in a mixed cultural atmosphere. He studied in Hebrew, spoke Yiddish in the home and learned German literature from his mother and the teachings of Maimonides and the Hassidim from his father. Most of Agnon’s novels dealt with the life of East European Jews who remained unaffected by modern life and were filled with an absolute and unquestioning faith. However, unlike other East European Jews living in Berlin, like Micha Josef Berdyczewski and David Frischmann, who never attempted to portray German Jews, Agnon’s works remain some of the most fascinating accounts of German Jewry. In contrast to most German Jewish authors, he abstained from both stigmatizing the German Jewish as assimilated ‘non-Jewish Jews’ and idealizing the ‘authentic Jews’ of the East. In the era when such German Jewish authors as Alfred Döblin and Arnold Zweig went East in search of genuine Jews, East European intellectuals like Agnon moved westward, attracted by the flourishing cultural life in Germany. SY Agnon best illustrated the manifold of dynamics that developed between German Jewish society and the Hebrew writers. Agnon became an integral part of the Galician colony in Leipzig, the East European intellectual circles in Berlin and the small group of Hebrew writers in Bad Homburg. Yet he was tied to the indigenous German Jewish community, especially after his marriage to a German Jewess. Agnon also became known among Zionists who liked his combination of traditional and modern ways of writing and for whom he was the embodiment of East Jewish spirituality.

July 17, 1888, Buczacz, Galicia, Austria-Hungary [now Buchach, Ukraine]d. Feb. 17, 1970, Rehovot, Israel), Israeli writer who was one of the leading modern Hebrew novelists and short-story writers. In 1966 he was the corecipient, with Nelly Sachs , of the Nobel Prize for Literature Born of a family of Polish Jewish merchants, rabbis, and scholars, Agnon wrote at first (1903-06) in Yiddish and Hebrew, under his own name and various pseudonyms. Soon after settling in Palestine in 1907, however, he took the surname Agnon and chose Hebrew as the language in which to unfold his dramatic, visionary, highly polished narratives. Agnon's real literary debut was made with Agunot (1908; "Forsaken Wives"), his first "Palestinian" story. His first major work was the novel Hakhnasat kalah, 2 vol. (1919; The Bridal Canopy ). Its hero, Reb Yudel Hasid, is the embodiment of every wandering, drifting Jew in the ghettos of the tsarist and Austro-Hungarian empires. His second novel, Ore'ah Nata' Lalun A Guest for the Night ), describes the material and moral decay of European Jewry after World War I. His third and perhaps greatest novel

    Extractions: Our sages of blessed memory have said that we must not enjoy any pleasure in this world without reciting a blessing. If we eat any food, or drink any beverage, we must recite a blessing over them before and after. If we breathe the scent of goodly grass, the fragrance of spices, the aroma of good fruits, we pronounce a blessing over the pleasure. The same applies to pleasures of the sight. And the same applies to pleasures of the ear. People's talk and the stories they tell have been engraved on my heart, and some of them have flown into my pen. I am very small indeed in my own eyes. If I am proud of anything, it is that I have been granted the privilege of living in the land which God promised our forefathers to give us, as it is written. Our days on earth are like a shadow, and the time of our affliction is the length of our days. I am generally ashamed to walk out in new clothes. And why am I ashamed? Is it because I don't want to embarrass the others who don't have new things? Or perhaps because a new coat makes you stand out, and you seem to be clothes and nothing else. A home from which you can be ejected at any time is no true home.
