(

)

Cover of the first issue of Der nayer veg, published May 11, 1906

... that the 1906–1907 weekly Der nayer veg (cover page pictured) contained some of the earliest critical scholarly writings on Yiddish language literature? Source: "contained some of the first attempts to apply critical scholarly methods to the study of the Yiddish language, literature, and the material conditions of Russian Jewry in the Yiddish language, and [was, along with the Jewish Socialist organ Di folksshtime,] important precursors to the scholarly work that would appear in the post-1905 revolutionary period" ([1])
