	JewishEncyclopedia.com - HASKALAH (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Generally, "haskalah" indicates the beginning of the movement among the Jews about the end of the eighteenth century in Eastern Europe toward abandoning their exclusiveness and acquiring the knowledge, manners, and aspirations of the nations among whom they dwell.
		The condition of the Jews of Galicia, already deplorable, was made worse by the partition of Poland, and the haskalah movement was introduced in Galicia in such manner as to almost justify the view that it was one of the afflictions due to the new régime.
		But as far as haskalah in the restricted sense is concerned, the attempt failed in these schools, as well as in the rabbinical schools established later.

	The Haskalah
		The Haskalah was characterized by a scientific approach to religion in which secular culture and philosophy became a central value.
		The Haskalah marked the end of the use of Yiddish, the revival of Hebrew and an adoption of European languages.
		Orthodox Jews were against the Haskalah from the start because it went against traditional Judaism and challenged both rabbinic orthodoxy and the role of Talmud in education.

	Ralph Dumain: "The Autodidact Project": Raphael Mahler: Introduction, Hasidism and the Jewish Enlightenment
		Hasidism and the Haskalah, two movements that clashed for the first time in the social and cultural life of the Jewish people at the thresh old of the nineteenth century, were crucial factors in shaping Jewish culture in the modern period.
		The progressiveness of the Haskalah is measured by the degree of progressiveness of the bourgeoisie, the class that carried on the struggle against social and political feudalism, which was developing in Jewish society just as it was elsewhere in the world.
		As far as the Haskalah in Poland is concerned, I chose to elaborate on its writers and literature since, due to its sparsity, it did not succeed in entering the written history of modern Hebrew literature as did the Haskalah in Galicia.

	Haskalah
		The haskalah was the movement among European Jews in the late 18th century toward adopting enlightenment values, integration into the larger gentile society, and acquiring the knowledge, manners, and aspirations of the gentile nations among whom they lived.
		It is identified with the substitution of the study of modern subjects for the study of the Talmud; with opposition to fanaticism, superstition, and Hasidism; with the adoption by Jews of agriculture and handicrafts; and with a desire to keep in touch with the times.
		The "bi'ur," or grammatical commentary (see Biurists), prepared under Mendelssohn's supervision, was designed to counteract the influence of the Talmudical or rabbinical method of exegesis, and, together with the translation, it became, as it were, the primer of haskalah.

	Religion - Haskalah - Jewish Reference: People, Places, and All Things Jewish
		Haskalah (Hebrew: השכלה;; "enlightenment," "intellect," from sekhel, "common sense") was a religious movement among European Jews in the late 18th century that advocated adopting enlightenment values, pressing for better integration into European society, and increasing education in secular studies, Hebrew, and Jewish history.
		As long as the Jews lived in segregated communities, and as long as all avenues of social intercourse with their gentile neighbors were closed to them, the rabbi was the most influential member of the Jewish community.
		Haskalah resulted in a increased rate of assimilation, as Jews became estranged from their traditional religious beliefs.

		He was a champion of the Haskalah movement, urging his listeners to aquire secular knowledge and to send their children to the public schools rather than to the Heder.
		But he aggravated, rather than allayed, the fear of the conservative classes that he was not in accord with them on some religious questions; and by discarding the traditional dress and manners of the "maggid" he aroused suspicion and also opposition in certain quarters.

	Haskalah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		One facet of haskalah was a widespread cultural adaptation, as those Jews who participated in the enlightenment began in varying degrees to participate in the cultural practices of the surrounding gentile population.
		Connected with this was the birth of the Reform movement, whose founding rabbis rejected the continuing observance of those aspects of Jewish law which they classified as ritual, as opposed to moral.
		Even within orthodoxy the Haskalah was felt through the appearance of the Mussar Movement in Lithuania and Torah im Derech Eretz in Germany.

		The first Haskalah did have one important effect: it united the mitnagdim and the Chasidim against the common foe.
		The most influential Haskalah writer of the 19th century was Chayim Nachman Bialik, born on January 9, 1873.
		The Haskalah, with its emphasis on Western culture, Hebrew, love of Israel, and pragmatic secular studies, laid the groundwork for the eventual Zionist movement, which resulted in the return to Zion and the rebuilding of the Land of Israel.

		But when the Haskalah began to develop, it was precisely the rich and the religious who should have sent their sons to school, because at that time, they weren't forced to write on Shabbat, nor were they even required to go to school on Shabbat.
		During the Haskalah period, Hebrew authors, unlike their Yiddish counterparts, were largely paid "in kind." The publisher would supply the authors with an agreed upon number of their own books in place of advances and royalties, which they would sell if they could.
		Foner was not the only woman to write in Hebrew during the Haskalah in Russia, but she was the earliest and most prolific of the women writing Hebrew fiction.

		The Haskalah, or Jewish Enlightenment, was an intellectual movement among Eastern and Central European Jews in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
		In Russia, the Haskalah was also a means to express an ardor for things spiritual and philosophical while under the cruel oppression of the czars' regime.
		For this reason also I have marked the boundaries of the Haskalah epochs in correspondence to the dates of the reigns of the several czars, though the correspondence is not always exact.

		Hasidism and Haskalah arose at roughly the same time, although their bases of power and agendas were totally different, if not diametrically opposed.
		Haskalah (Intellectualism), or as it was known in the West, Aufklärung (Enlightenment), is viewed as the brainchild of Moses Mendelssohn of Berlin; its thrust was progressive education and adoption of European culture.
		It must be pointed out that Haskalah posed a threat not only to the hasidim (whom the maskilim found most loathsome), but also to the tradition-minded talmudists of the Lithuanian yeshivot.

		It is in effect a monograph which examines the transition of Haskalah from Germany to Austria and to Galicia following the demise of the first Hebrew periodical, 'Hame'asef,' and explores the literary contribution of the Galician Haskalah.

		It would seem necessary, therefore, to introduce a description of the Haskalah movement with a rapid survey of the history of the Russo-Polish Jews from the time of their emergence from obscurity up to the middle of the seventeenth century.
		To the student of Haskalah he is interesting, because he marks the close of the old and the beginning of the new era.
		As formerly with the Talmud, the Haskalah seemed, at the time of Mendelssohn, to be moving from the East westward, through the agency of the Slavonic Jews pouring perennially into Germany.
