Research Projects
Zohar’s initial area of academic interest focused on Hebrew Literature during the period of the Haskalah (18th-19th century enlightenment), especially in neglected Literature Texts written by Torah Scholars in Eastern Europe.
In her research she includes thematic side on Archetypal Stories from Jewish Literature which appear in widely read Stories of the Haskalah Literature.
Zohar’s interests have shifted towards Biblical-Drama in the Enlightenment period. In this area she has recently published a book dealing with the ways of interpretations of Biblical Stories by Haskalah Playwriters. The book ‘BE’OR HADASH, considers the genre, the subjects and the structures. The Corpus includes approximately 25 plays published between 1794-1881.
