“Simon Dubnow was the first modern historian to present a comprehensive World History of the Jewish People from the Earliest Times to the Present Day. His ten-volume magnum opus was initially published in German. Since Dubnow’s thought was characterized by an intellectual proximity to the liberal political culture of Western Europe, he became a cultural mediator between Western and Eastern Jewry…As a historian, Dubnow can be regarded as a pioneer on the basis of his historiographical model combining Jewish history with general history. In his memoirs, too, in which he reported – sometimes as an eyewitness – on key events in Jewish and general history, he revealed himself to be a historian of his time.” (Leibniz Institute for Jewish History and Culture)
