Agnon, Shmuel Yosef (1888-1970) His first short story Agunot ("Forsaken Wives") was published in Palestine in 1924 under the pen-name Agnon, which bears a resemblance to the title of the story, and which became his official family name thereafter. In 1913, Agnon left Israel for Germany where he remained for 11 years. Zionist young people liked his combination of traditional and modern ways of writing. In Germany Agnon met the wealthy businessman Salman Schocken, who became his admirer, supporter, and publisher. Free from financial worries Agnon lived comfortably, wrote much, and collected rare and valuable Hebrew books. This happy period ended in 1924 when a fire swept his home and destroyed most of his books and manuscripts. In the same year, Agnon settled again in Jerusalem, but again his valuable library was destroyed, this time when his home was plundered during the Arab riots of 1929. In 1931, he became recognized as one of the central figures of modern Hebrew literature when he published the first edition of his collected works, including the folk-epic The Bridal Canopy, considered to be a cornerstone of modern Hebrew literature. Running through his stories is the ever-recurring conflict between old and new, and many of his stories have a nightmarish quality, as they leave the reader wondering what is real and what is fantasy. Characters talk to themselves in an attempt to understand themselves and their puzzling surroundings. In A Guest for the Night, an anonymous narrator visits his town in Galicia after an absence of many years, and witnesses its desolation. The factual core of this story was Agnon's own visit to his native town of Buczacz in 1930. Although the novel mirrors the hopelessness of the Jewish world during this time, Agnon even in his youth had called Buczacz a "city of the dead."

One of the central figures in modern Hebrew fiction, Shmuel Yosef Agnon was Nobel Laureate in Literature in 1966. In 1907 he left his childhood home in eastern Galicia, settling in Palestine where (except for a stay in Germany from 1913 to 1924) he remained until his death. Using language and storytelling techniques drawn from Jewish religious texts and folk literature, Agnon's works deal with major contemporary spiritual concerns: the disintegration of traditional world of Galician Jewry at the turn of the 20th century, the loss of faith, and the subsequent loss of identity. In addition to his fictional work, Agnon published popular collections of rabbinic lore and hasidic tales, among them Yamim Noraim (Days of Awe).

Shmuel Yosef Agnon Quotations Our sages of blessed memory have said that we must not enjoy any pleasure in this world without reciting a blessing. If we eat any food, or drink any beverage, we must recite a blessing over them before and after. If we breathe the scent of goodly grass, the fragrance of spices, the aroma of good fruits, we pronounce a blessing over the pleasure. The same applies to pleasures of the sight. And the same applies to pleasures of the ear. I belong to the tribe of Levi. I was five years old when I wrote my first song. It was out of longing for my father that I wrote it. Who were my mentors in poetry and literature? This is a matter of opinion. Some see in my books the influences of authors whose names, in my ignorance, I have not even heard, while others see the influences of poets whose names I have heard but whose writings I have not read. And what is my opinion? From whom did I receive nurture? Not every man remembers the name of the cow which supplied him with each drop of milk he has drunk. People’s talk and the stories they tell have been engraved on my heart, and some of them have flown into my pen.

FEBRUARY 6, 2004 current issue back issues subscribe Agnon, a Borgesian Invention A Lost Lecture Resurfaces, Revealing Unknown Influences Ilan Stavans Let me ask a simple yet complex question, which is what all questions are: What is a nation? My first reaction is to offer a geographical answer, but it would be insufficient. Instead, let us envision a nation as the series of memories stored at the heart of a people. George Bernard Shaw was once asked: How much suffering is humankind able to bear? His answer was that the suffering of a single individual is enough and is also the limit. In other words, the limit might be an abstraction, although the suffering itself is real. And so, if misery is impossible to measure in collective terms, how might one define a nation? To me, there isn't a clearer example of a nation than Israel, whose origins are almost confused with those of the entire world, and which reaches us today after much misery and exile. A nation is made of the accumulated memory of successive generations. In itself, memory is often approached in a couple of ways: as a barren collection of dates, names and locations, and as a catalog of curiosities. But there's another approach neither endorsed by historians nor by students of folklore: memory as experience incarnated in people. This, precisely, is what I find in Agnon. I shall now refer to "The Whole Loaf," a story about chance. It reminds me of Kafka, who is part of Jewish memory too. Agnon chronicles the infinite yet minuscule obstacles undergone by its hungry protagonist as he prepares for the Sabbath. Whereas Kafka was about the lack of hope, or else about a hope so remote it generates in us a terrible feeling of desperation, Agnon is patient: He waits because he's a believer. Indeed, one of the right decisions the Swedish Academy made recently was not to award its Nobel Prize to a writer of sadness and despair. Instead, it honored one who, like Bernard Shaw, also a laureate, is sensitive to tragedy but knows that a joyful conclusion to the human quest isn't altogether beyond us.
