Description
Luaḥ ha-peʻalim is a book of Hebrew grammar written by Judah Leib Ben Ze'ev (1764-1811), who was the first Jewish scholar to apply Western research methods to the study of Hebrew. Born near Cracow, Ben Ze'ev received a traditional Jewish education, but covertly, on his own, studied Hebrew philology and secular subjects. He belonged to the group of Polish-Jewish writers that published Ha-Me'assef, a literary organ in the spirit of the early Haskalah (Jewish Enlightenment).
Ben Ze'ev's versatile literary activities are spread over a number of fields: grammar and phonetics, lexicography, Bible exegesis, translations, poetry, parodic works, and the editing of medieval texts. Luaḥ ha-peʻalim is a smaller work that includes verb and noun tables for the study of Hebrew grammar.
This copy is signed by Shaul [Tsad?] and has child's drawings incorporating Hebrew letters.
