Rachel Luzzatto Morpurgo (1790–1871) (Hebrew רחל לוצאטו מורפורגו) Jewish-Italian poet. She is said to be the first Jewish woman to write poetry in Hebrew under her own name in two thousand years.[1]
In Morpurgo's time, Jewish women were rarely taught Hebrew, which was considered strictly the province of men and suitable only for religious subjects and discourse. Under the influence of the Haskalah, the Jewish Enlightenment, Hebrew began to be used for secular subjects and the foundation was laid for the modern Hebrew language. Morpurgo's literary interest thus found an audience and sympathetic reception that would not have existed earlier. In addition, the endorsement of her highly respected cousin Samuel David Luzzatto gave her prominence that would have been hard to attain on her own.
A woman writing Hebrew poetry was sufficiently unusual at the time that many readers doubted the poems were written by a woman. Some visited her home in Trieste to confirm she actually existed. One critic assumed that she must have reached menopause on the belief that biological fertility ruled out literary creativity. The modern literary critic Dan Miron has dismissed her as a "rhymester of the Hebrew Enlightenment" and contended that she "should be distinguished from the few serious poets of the period, who struggled spiritually and poetically with their optimistic rational worldview, on the one hand, and the social cultural and spiritual state of the people, on the other."
None of her works was published after the death of her cousin until a collection of her poems, Ugav Rachel (עוגב רחל), Rachel's Harp, was published in 1890.
