R Hirsch and Heinrich Graetz

There is no question that RSR Hirsch villified H Graetz with a series of diatribes that were often ad hominem

I have opposed ad hominem attacks in general - and so this aspect of R Hirsch's wrtitings bothers me

On The Other Hand, R Hirsch was locked in a battle for men's souls
It was ET LA'ASOT.

What was the short-term and long-term danger of Graetz's writings? What really bothered R Hirsch? Was Hirsch angry at Graetz's errors? Many writers make mistakes....

What WAS the key objection?

I have my own theories, what do you Reader's say

Maybe we can conduct a poll.

Shalom
