Creator Bio

Max Jungmann

1875–1970

Born in Schildberg, Germany (today Ostrzeszów, Poland) to an assimilated family, Max Jungmann studied medicine in Freiburg and Berlin, and was active in a Zionist student group. In 1903, following a meeting with Theodore Herzl and the Zionist leader Sammy Gronemann, Jungmann started Der Schlemihl, an illustrated German Zionist satirical monthly (1903–1906), which also employed the leading German Zionist writers Dr. Theodor Zlocisti and Leo Winz. Jungmann was active in the nationally minded and postassimilationist wing of the German Jewish literary world, editing the short-lived Die jüdische Moderne. Jungmann was also an essayist and poet. He immigrated to Palestine in the late 1930s.
