This is the first serious attempt to analyse the development and variation of themes in the work of S. J. Agnon (1888? - 1970), winner of the Nobel Prize for literature in 1966. In particular, the author looks at psychological themes, allowing his approach to be determined by the nature and style of the works themselves, rather than attempting to fit them into any one psychoanalytical framework.
