Kort biografi
Theodor Herzl was born in Hungary to secular, German-speaking Jewish parents. He's considered the father of modern political Zionism. It is said that he was inspired by the idea when, as a journalist, he was covering the Dreyfus trial in Paris in 1894 and witnessed crowds screaming not "Death to Dreyfus," but "Death to the Jews." Another event that had a great effect on his political thought was the rise to power of the anti-Semitic demagogue Karl Lueger in Austria in 1895. It was at this time that Herzl wrote his play "The New Ghetto," showing the lack of real security and equality of even assimilated, well-to-do Viennese Jews. Herzl grew to believe that anti-Semitism could not be defeated or cured, only avoided, and that it was imperative for Jews to leave Europe and establish their own Jewish state. In 1889 he married Julie Naschauer; the couple had three children, though the union was unhappy. His most famous work, Der Judenstaat (The Jewish State) was initially published in 1896. In 1897, he organized the First Zionist Congress in Basel, Switzerland, at which he was elected President of the Zionist Organization (later renamed the World Zionist Organization). However, Herzl did not live to see the fulfillment of his ideal -- he died of heart disease at the age of 44.

... Nun plej interesa rezulto de la restarigo de l' juda regno estas ĝuste la renaskiĝo de la nova hebrea lingvo kaj ĝia adapto al ĉiaj modernaj bezonoj.
La traduko estas bona.

This is essential reading for anyone that's interested in understanding the causes of the problems in the modern Middle East. It is the first expression of Zionism and the ideas it expresses led directly to the founding of Israel. You can see the ideological roots of the Jewish Agency, Jewish National Fund and Histadrut in this text.

That being said, it's also one of the most poorly written works I've read, though the author admits the work is repetitious and not really that great in the conclusion. The main objective, he says, was to open a conversation about the Jewish question, which he most certainly did. So, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone looking to do casual reading.… (mer)

Here lies the modern ideological origins of Zionism and Israel. Think of all the desert dwellers this tiny book has pissed off after they got hoodwinked out of their land! Shows how the power of an ethnocentric cultural mythos such as "The Promised Land" and the "Chosen People" can really unify and motivate people. Historically informative. Includes a short biography of Herzl too. Leaves little mystery as to why the Arabs still hate Israel.

Kind of a sad book to read in the 21st century. Herzl had a really sweet vision for a peaceful, western, advanced country. The main interest in reading this is naturally comparing what he planned with what actually happened.

As a novel, I wouldn't say it's particularly well-written. If not for my interest in Herzl's opinions, there's no way I would have read it from beginning to end. Most of the plot is no more than an excuse to show what he feels can and should be done through the Zionist movement, so obviously the literary value suffers.

I'll say - if you're interested in Herzl and his original plans for Zionism - you'll probably enjoy this very much. Otherwise - I wouldn't recommend it.
