Abstract:
Another Hebrew philologist, Zevi Hirsch Sommerhausen, who lived in Holland and Belgium, was the author of one of the best Hebrew parodies which has retained its popularity, Haggadah le-Leil Shikkorim, a parody of the traditional Passover Haggadah. It is reminiscent of the classical winesongs in the Hebrew poetry of Spain and in the poetry of the other peoples - the Greek Anacreon and the Persian Omar Khayyam. Sommerhausen's Haggadah begins with these Anacreonic rhymes: Drink and eat, eat and drink, Dissipate every heart-ache Eat and drink, drink and eat Till you don't know black from white. At the end is a German poem by the author (in Hebrew letters) in praise of wine, even specifying particular types.
