Yitzhaq Shami
Yitzhaq Shami ((ヘブライ語:יצחק שמי)) (August 4, 1888 – March 1949) was a Hebrew writer, one of the earliest modern Hebrew literature writers in Palestine, prior to Israeli statehood. His work was unique for his period, since in contrast with the vast majority of Hebrew writers of the period he crafted his art based on characters who were either Arabs or Sephardic Jews, residing in the Ottoman Palestine, and his literary influences were predominantly Arab and Middle Eastern. Shami published short stories, one novella, several poems and a number of essays.
==Biography==
Shami's birth name was Yitzhaq Sarwi. He was born in Hebron (al-Khalil) in 1888, eldest of three sons. His father, Eliyahu, was a textile merchant, who relocated from Damascus to Hebron in 1885. The father was therefore known as "a-Shami" (the Damascene), and that was the origin of the pen-name later adopted by the writer. Eventually, it became his legal name as well.〔Basic biographical information found in ''Sefer Hevron'', edited by Oded Avisar (in Hebrew)〕 His mother, Rivqa Castel, was a Hebronite from a traditional Sephardic family. Growing up, Shami spoke Arabic with his father, and Ladino with his mother, and the family conducted its life in customary middle eastern style of the period.
The father traveled across the middle east and in the locality for his business, and through his father, Shami was exposed to the local villagers (fallahin), which were later treated as characters in his stories. A critical influence on Shami as a young teenager was Jurji Zaydan (died 1914)—founder of the Arabic Al-Nahda (Revival), modernizing of the Arabic language, one of the founders of the University of Cairo, and father of Pan-Arabism.〔http://www.scribd.com/doc/24633932/09-12-30-Shami-Epilogue-s〕
