Dawn No. 22, may 1881 Organ of Russian Jews. Weekly publication.
SPb. 1881, pp. 843 - 871. Soft cover, 26 x 35 cm. Cover separately from the block, tears.
The initiator of the publication was a group of St. Petersburg Jews who sought to counteract assimilation. Since it was impossible to obtain permission for publication, it was decided to use the right to publish that A. Tsederbaum had, which he retained after the termination of the publication of the newspaper "Bulletin of Russian Jews" (1871-73).
Initially, the magazine positioned itself as a national Jewish publication that sought to develop Jewish culture and literature, to study Jewish history. Despite the fact that the publication had a positive attitude to the idea of settling Eretz-Israel, the decision of the Jewish question in Russia, the management of the magazine saw in the transition of a significant part of the Jewish population to agricultural labor.
However, after the pogroms of 1881 and anti-Semitic protests in Russia, the magazine changed its position and became the main propagandist of the Jewish emigration and the Palestinian movement "Hovevey Zion". On January 16, 1882, the interview of the Minister of internal Affairs, count N. p. Ignatiev, to Isaac Orshansky was published in the" Dawn", in which the Minister allowed mass Jewish emigration: "the Western border is open to Jews...".
However, two other Jewish magazines published in St. Petersburg, the Russian Jew (1879-84) and Voskhod (1881-1906), sharply criticized the course of the publication and called for a boycott of subscriptions to it, as a result of which by the beginning of 1883 the circulation of the magazine fell to 900 issues and it was forced to close due to lack of finances.
Since its Foundation until 1880, the nominal editors of the journal were A. Zederbaum and Dr. A. Goldenblum (1828-1913), but the actual management of the publication was carried out by J. Rosenfeld, M. Varshavsky (1853-97), M. I. Kulisher , N. Minsky, P. Levenson. In 1880 — 82 Years G. Bogrov and J. Rosenfeld were the official editors of the magazine. Since 1882, only J. Rosenfeld.
