520    Between the years 1795 and 1815, Charleston, South 
       Carolina, experienced prodigious economic growth resulting
       in a remarkable period of cultural efflorescence. After 
       1815, however, the city entered a period of economic 
       decline, the effects of which were perceived in every 
       aspect of Charleston's communal infrastructure. This 
       revealing new biography of Isaac Harby (1788-1828) sheds 
       much light on the rise and fall of Charleston during this 
       period. 
520 8  As a newspaper editor and publisher, a playwright of some 
       distinction, a highly regarded drama critic, an essayist, 
       and a political and social commentator, Harby earned a 
       position of respect and prominence within the thriving 
       cultural milieu of antebellum Charleston. Harby, together 
       with a small group of contemporary litterateurs, spent 
       considerable energy trying to establish and legitimate 
       letters as a profession. 
520 8  Unfortunately their desire to make a living in the world 
       of the literary arts - the leitmotiv of a generation of 
       literati - was a dream that went largely unfulfilled. 
       Nevertheless, these individuals struggled to stimulate the
       growth and development of a native literary tradition in 
       this country. 
520 8  By studying Harby, one of the few Jews in his city's 
       literary circle, we add significantly to our understanding
       of Jewish life in the South during the early national 
       period. Harby's active role in the establishment and 
       advancement of the Reformed Society of Israelites 
       (incorporated in 1825), the first formalized effort to 
       reform Judaism in North America, has attracted 
       considerable scholarly attention. 
520 8  Zola demonstrates that Harby's particular interest in the 
       reformation of Judaism was very much related to his 
       lifelong desire to improve society through the cause of 
       intellectual enrichment. Drawing from local newspapers, 
       government documents, and other contemporary sources, 
       together with the newly discovered contents of Harby's 
       personal library and papers, this book constitutes an 
       entirely new analysis of Harby's life.
