總結:Beginning with the author's encounter with Gershom Scholem's "From Berlin to Jerusalem" as a graduate student, this essay compares the autobiographical writings of Scholem and Isaiah Berlin, particularly from the perspective of the portrayal of pivotal figures in the lives of each: S. Y. Agnon in the case of Scholem, and Lewis Namier in the case of Berlin. The essay also compares the errors of biographers with the lies of autobiographers, expressing a preference for the latter.
