Hebrew Literature
Hebrew Literature refers to the body of written works produced in the Hebrew language, spanning over three millennia. It includes religious texts, poetry, prose, and modern works, reflecting the cultural and historical experiences of the Jewish people. Key texts include the Hebrew Bible, which is foundational to both Judaism and Christianity, and various rabbinic writings that explore religious law and ethics.
In modern times, Hebrew literature has evolved significantly, especially after the revival of the Hebrew language in the 19th century. Notable authors like Shmuel Yosef Agnon and Amos Oz have contributed to its richness, addressing themes of identity, exile, and the complexities of life in Israel.
