Explore writers and thinkers who represent different perspectives on the nature and development of Zionism. History will be seen through poetry, biography and ideas. We will dive into the writing of five key figures with the goal of understanding the dynamic and various ways that Zionists before the creation of the state conceptualized Israel. The figures that we’ll engage with are: Nachum Bialik – The first epic poet of Zionism; Vladimir Jabotinsky – Creator of Revisionist Zionism and the Jewish Legion; Henrietta Szold – Founder of Hadassah; Judah Magnes – Proponent of bi-nationalism and Itzik Manger – Yiddish poet of return.
