Excerpt from The New-Hebrew School of Poets of the Spanish-Arabian Epoch: Selected Texts With Introduction, Notes and Dictionary

It is unfortunately only too true that the new-hebrew poetry has not hitherto been accorded the recognition and appreciation to which, both as regards its form and content, it is justly entitled. By all but the few amateurs who zealously cultivate it it is totally neglected. It deserves to be not only more widely known and read, but also, as a subject of scientific research, is worthy of greater attention than it at present receives 1. Even by professed orientalists, who pursue with eagerness and zest every discoverable fact possessing any sort of interest and significance for the study of the sacred litera tures and religions of the Ancient East, this branch of oriental literature is entirely ignored. For this state of affairs various reasons might be adduced. One of the most cogent, doubtless, is the absence hitherto of any trustworthy guide capable of introducing the beginner - for even masters must on the threshold be beginners - into the whole vast domain of this new and strange world; a guide who could enable the learner to familiarise him self with the general character, extent and essential features of the region which it would be his task afterwards to explore independently.
