Abstract

This article presents the Catalan translation of Sh. Y. Agnon’s short story Tehilah, plus a study of the life and work of the great Israeli writer and winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature. Agnon’s works reflect his perception of being Jewish in a deeply troubled world. They express the mystery of God and the meaning of Jewish life in a singular fashion, using Hebrew of tremendous linguistic richness and a surprising literary style which make him unique as a writer in the history of Hebrew literature.

Keywords: modern Hebrew literature, Sh. Y. Agnon, Tehilah
