Breuer, Isaac : The People of the Torah: Selected Essays by Isaac Brueur

London: Jewish Post Publications, 1956. Paper Wrappers. 8vo. 48 pages. Black and white frontis portrait. Isaac Breuer was a theoretician and leader of German Orthodoxy; son of Solomon Breuer. Born in Papa, Hungary, Breuer was brought as a child to Frankfort, where he studied at his father's yeshivah. He subsequently studied law, philosophy, and history at various universities and practiced as a lawyer in Frankfort. He soon took a leading part in various communal organizations. He defended the communal secession of the Orthodox in his Preussische Austrittsgesetzgebung und das Judentum (1913) . When Agudat Israel was founded in 1912, Breuer became one of its ideologists and spokesmen. After the Nazis came to power, he settled in Jerusalem (1936) , practicing as a lawyer, and devoting himself to organizing Po'alei Agudat Israel, of which he became the president. His appearance on behalf of the Agudah before the Peel Commission (1937) and the Anglo-American Commission (March 1946) made a great impression. (SEF-2-6)
