 MyJewishLearning.com - History & Community: Leopold Zunz
Zunz received his early education at the Samson School in Wolfenbuttel, where the principal of the school referred to the young boy of 11 as a “genius.” He settled in Berlin in 1815, studying at the University of Berlin and obtaining a doctorate from the University of Halle
These facts are worthy of mention because Zunz’s religious struggles were typical of the angst of all the practitioners of the new movement, who had learned to see Judaism objectively and in the context of its historical development, so that, as someone has put it, their head was without but their heart within.
Zunz, at least, showed that it was possible for a great scholar to pursue his researches in a completely objective manner while frankly acknowledging that he had an axe to grind in the process.

[7] In a letter to Leopold Zunz, Heinrich Heine (1797-1856), who joined the Culturverein in August 1822, complains about the incomprehensible language of the newspaper, declaring that if he did not happen to know what the authors were trying to say, he would not understand a word.

Zunz, who was one of the fathers of Judische Wissenschaft or the "Science of Judaism", wrote a treatise suited to a scholarly journal.
Zunz's scholarly work began in 1817 when he did research on the Sefer ha-Ma'alot of Shem Tov ben Joseph Falaquera (for this research work he received the degree of doctor of philosophy in 1821 at the University of Halle) and wrote Etwas ueber die rabbinische Literatur (1818).
