" Kalman Schulman (18191899) was a prolific Hebrew writer, translator and historian. A graduate of the Yeshiva of Volozhin, his maskilic approach was combined with a firmly religious outlook in the spirit of Vilnas moderate Haskalah, the city in which he spent his life. A harbinger of Zionism, Schulmans love for the Land of Israel and his related literary activities, greatly assisted in the development of a modern Hebrew literature. He devoted himself primarily to translating (mainly from German) and popularizing history, geography, and ethnography, both general and Jewish. SUBJECTS: Russia -- Description and travel. Russia.
