Rhymed Prose as a means of showing the relations between the streams of the Jewish community in Europe in the 18th century. The book "Systems Document" by Judah Hurwitz as model

Abstract

The Rhymed Prose and Al maqamat emerged as a literary stream during the middle ages in Spain and Italy, which developed enormously in the 18th and 19th centuries as a kind of genre in Haskalah literature such as the works of Hayim Nahman Bialik, Shmuel Yosef Agnon, and Yehuda. The rhymed prose is beautifully written in the modern period, which is shown through the variety of productions,  the relationship between the diversity of the different products and the fixed definitions, and the focus on the actual objectives of the maqamat. It was provided with adequate objective reports on the content and images of the same productions which were crystallized in Hebrew literature during the middle ages. These images were shown in one of the critical works published in the 18th century. The book "Systems Document" by the historian Judah Hurwitz, who is known in the history of Hebrew literature as one of the initiators and center of the moderate enlightenment movement in Eastern Europe. This book presents a debate between Hassidim (Hasidim) and their opponents in a narrative and a gentle manner. In his book, Judah Hurwitz provided details of the relationship between religious and spiritual currents in the Jewish community in the 18th and 19th centuries, in an easy and enjoyable way.
