Micha Josef Berdyczewski

Micha Josef Berdyczewski (), or Mikhah Yosef Bin-Gorion (August 7, 1865 – November 18, 1921) (surname also written ''Berdichevsky''), was a Ukraine-born writer of Hebrew, a journalist, and a scholar. He appealed for the Jews to change their way of thinking, freeing themselves from dogmas ruling the Jewish religion, tradition and history, but is also known for his work with pre-modern Jewish myths and legends. He wrote in Hebrew, Yiddish and German and has been described as "the first Hebrew writer living in Berlin to be revered in the world of German letters". Provided by Wikipedia
