Why Is Israel Gollancz Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Sir Israel Gollancz, FBA was a scholar of early English literature and of Shakespeare. He was Professor of English Language and Literature at King's College, London, from 1903 to 1930. Life and career Gollancz was born 13 July 1863, in London, sixth of seven children of Rabbi Samuel Marcus Gollancz , cantor of the Hambro Synagogue, London, and his wife, Johanna Koppell. He was the younger brother of Sir Hermann Gollancz and the uncle of the publisher Victor Gollancz. As a Jew, Gollancz faced significant anti-semitism in his life and career, which was reflected in his academic work through his recurrent interest in Shakespeare's representation of Jewishness in A Merchant of Venice; later in his life, many of his friends knew him by the nickname 'Goblin'.
