In it, eighteen preeminent Hebrew literature scholars in the US and Israel offer commentarytraditional, historicist, feminist, postmodernon one of six seminal texts. The texts, printed here in both English and Hebrew, are either short stories or poems, and range from old classics by the bestknown writers in Hebrew of the first decades of the 20th century, such as M.Y. Berdichevsky, S. Tchernichovsky, and S.Y. Agnon to an interwar poem by Uri Zvi Greenberg to the contemporary, modernist work of two women authors, Amalia CahanaKarmon and Dalia Ravikovitch.
