Jonathan Frankel (July 15, 1935, in London – May 7, 2008, in Jerusalem) was a historian and writer. He was a lecturer at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem from 1964 to 1985, and a professor between 1985 and 2004.




Influence


Frankel was a noted historian of Modern Jewry, as testified in many obituaries: “the most highly regarded historian of modern Jewry of his generation” (Steven Zipperstein, The Independent); “arguably the greatest historian of modern Jewry of his generation” (The Times); “a brilliant historian of Russian and Jewish history” (David Cesarani, The Guardian,).
Frankel contributed to the historiography of East European Jewish life with his book Prophecy and Politics: Socialism, Nationalism, and the Russian Jews, 1862–1917 (1982), which became a classic at the moment of its publication. This work approached Jewish history of the nineteenth and early twentieth century from a completely new perspective.
He is credited with having "helped establish the Department of Russian and Slavic Studies" at Hebrew University of Jerusalem.




Family


Frankel married Edith Rogovin in 1963; their marriage resulted in two daughters.
