His father was the poet Abraham Dov Lebensohn, and Micah had the benefit of a secular education as well as a religious one. At an early age he began his literary career with translations, including Schiller's German Aeneid, which established his reputation. Stricken at 17 with tuberculosis, which would kill him a few years later, he tried spa treatments, and produced some of his best work - influenced by the Romantics and reflective of the poet's knowledge of his oncoming death - while resting in places such as the Reinerz spa. His father published collections of Lebensohn's poems posthumously. (EJ, 2007) Tape label on spine, covers a bit darkened, good condition.
