Abstract:
Argues that the 17th-century Jewish historian Nathan Nata Hannover presented a rather ambivalent portrait of Khmelnytsky in his book (published in 1653) which describes the course of the Khmelnytsky uprising in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth from a Jewish perspective. He seems not to have been able to refrain from heroization of the antisemitic Cossack Hetman.
