    Hardcover. Condition: Good. Goelin, Hugo (illustrator). In Hebrew. Illustrations are protected with the original tissue guard. Leaf that is pages 39/40 has a closed tear. Spine repaired. 233 x 155 mm. 72 , (2) 72 pages. Very attractive Hebrew inscription, dated August 4, 1931m on front blank. David Frischmann (Dovid Frshman) (December 31, 1859 Zgierz, Russian Empire - August 4, 1922 Berlin, Germany) was a Hebrew and Yiddish modernist writer, poet, and translator and literary critic. He edited several important Hebrew periodicals, and wrote fiction, poetry, essays, feuilletons, literary criticisms, and translations. Born to wealthy merchants, Shaul and Freida Beila Frischmann, they moved to Lodz when he was two years old, where he received a private education combining traditional Jewish studies, French, and German. Frischmann showed signs of literary talent at a young age, and was considered a prodigy. He published his first article, in Chaim Selig Slonimski's journal Ha-Tsfira, at the age of 16 (written at age 13), followed by articles and poems in Ha-Shachar, Ha-Melitz, and Ha-Yom, and later edited Ha-Dor and Ha-Tkufa. In 1883 he published a Tohu va-Vohu ('Chaos and Emptiness'), a scathing criticism of Hebrew journalistic methods, especially directed against Ha-Melitz. He moved to Warsaw in the mid-1880s, where he wrote Otiyot porkhot ('Flying Letters'), a series of long stories. In 1886, he became an editor of Ha-Yom in St. Petersburg. Between 1895 and 1910 Frischmann studied philology, philosophy and the history of art at the University of Breslau where he befriended Micha Josef Berdyczewski. There he worked on translating works of European literature into Hebrew, among them works by Nietzsche, Pushkin, Eliot, Shakespeare, Baudelaire, and Ibsen. At the same time he worked as a Yiddish journalist for the Warsaw Jewish newspapers Hoys-Fraynd, Der Yud, and Fraynd. He visited the Land of Israel in 1911 and 1912 on behalf of the newspapers Ha-Tzefira and Haynt. Reports from his visits to Israel were collected in the book Sur la terre d'Israel ('On the Land of Israel', 1913), in which he described the landscapes, sacred places, and the revival of the Hebrew language. The impressions gathered there led him to believe in the future of Hebrew as a spoken language, although in his writings he remained faithful to classical Hebrew all his life. Frischmann was imprisoned in Berlin as an enemy alien at the outbreak of the World War I. After a few months he was allowed to return to Poland; he returned to Warsaw and was deported to Odessa by the Russian authorities when the German troops approached in 1915. In Odessa he translated the works of the Brothers Grimm, Tagore, Goethe, Heine, Byron, Wilde, and France, and contributed poetry to the Yiddish magazine Undzer Lebn. He briefly moved to Moscow following the Russian Revolution of 1917, where he became chairman of the editorial board of the Stybel Publishing House. He returned to Warsaw after the Bolsheviks closed the publishing house down in 1919. Frischmann went to Berlin in 1922 to be treated for a serious illness, and died there that year. His last work was a translation of Shakespeare's Coriolanus into Hebrew, which appeared posthumously.
