character in Borges story

Fishburn and Hughes: "A fictional name, possibly a tribute to Leopold Zunz (1794-1886), one of the greatest Jewish scholars of the nineteenth century. He was the founder of the modern ‘science of Judaism’ and one of the first to adopt a historical approach to Jewish literature." (216)
