KALIR [QALIR], ELEAZER

This article appears in Volume V15, Page 642 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: JUN-KHA
KALIR [QALIR], ELEAZER , Hebrew liturgical poet, whose hymns (piyyutim) are found in profusion in the festival prayers of the
German
  synagogal rite. The age in which he lived is unknown. Some (basing the view on Saadiah's Sefer ha-galuy)
place
  him as early as the 6th
century
 , others regard him as belonging to the roth
century
 . Kalir's
style
  is powerful but involved; he may be described as a Hebrew Browning.
Some beautiful renderings of Kalir's poems may be found in the volumes of
Davis
  &
Adler
 's edition of the
German
  Festival Prayers entitled Service of the
Synagogue
 .
