Autorenporträt
Hersh Dovid Nomberg was a writer and activist born in 1876 in Mszczonó w, near Warsaw. Raised in a strictly Hasidic environment, Nomberg began to dabble in forbidden secular texts, whereupon he experienced crisis of faith. Nomberg's newfound atheism and growing literary ambitions led him to Warsaw where he became a proté gé of I. L. Peretz. He began publishing poems and short stories in 1900 in both Yiddish and Hebrew, and was considered one of the most influential Yiddish writers of his generation.
