In this book, Shmuel Feiner, one of the most influential historians of the Jewish Enlightenment, offers a wide-ranging exploration of Jewish secularization as both an intellectual transformation and an emotional experience. With his signature combination of cultural breadth and close textual analysis, Feiner examines how Jewish authors--both men and women--responded to processes of secularization with anguish, alienation, anxiety, and attempts to reimagine their Jewish identity. This book adds a new dimension to our understanding of how Jewish modernity was felt, not just thought.
