Shneur Zaks (Senior Sachs)(1816-1892) was born to a Jewish family in Kaidany, Kovno Governorate. He was raised in Zhagory, where his father, Tzema? Sachs, was appointed rabbi when Senior was one and one-half years old. He studied Hebrew and Talmud under his father's tutelage, and while still a boy, displayed an interest in Hebrew literature.Sachs became acquainted with the parnas of the Kaidany community, who introduced him to Maskilic literature, including the works of Isaac Erter. Erter's writings so impressed him that he considered immediately moving to Brody in order to study under him, but Sachs' early marriage, in accordance with the custom of that time, prevented him. Instead, he studied for one year on a scholarship in the Wasilishok bet ha-midrash and taught for a year in Dubno. Around 1839 Sachs moved to Brody, where Erter assisted him in finding employment teaching Hebrew. Meanwhile he studied German and Syriac, and devoted the greater part of his time to reading scientific and philosophical works. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 016347
