Zionism
Zionism: A Very Short Introduction explores the history of Zionism from the origins of modern Jewish nationalism in the 1870s to the present. While situating the history of Zionism within the wider context of Middle Eastern politics, British colonialism, and the policies of the State of Israel since its founding in 1948, this VSI focuses on its internal intellectual history and ideological developments and divides. It illuminates the development …
Christoph Mick. Lemberg, Lwów, L’viv, 1914–1947
Lemberg, Lwów, L’viv, 1914–1947: Violence and Ethnicity in a Contested City is an English translation and revised edition of Christoph Mick’s German book on the subject, based on his Habilitation thesis at the University of Tübingen. For the most part, it is a captivating, if very dense, account of the seven regime changes that occurred in and around L’viv/Lwów/Lemberg/Lvov from the start of the twentieth century to 1947: from Habsburg to Russian…
A Murder in Lemberg
How could a Jew kill a Jew for religious and political reasons? Many people asked this question after an Orthodox Jew assassinated Israeli Prime Minister Itshak Rabin in 1995. But historian Michael Stanislawski couldn't forget it, and he decided to find out everything he could about an obscure and much earlier event that was uncannily similar to Rabin's murder: the 1848 killing--by an Orthodox Jew--of the Reform rabbi of Lemberg (now L'viv, Ukrai…
Zionism and the Fin de Siècle
Michael Stanislawski's provocative study of Max Nordau, Ephraim Moses Lilien, and Vladimir Jabotinsky reconceives the intersection of the European fin de siecle and early Zionism. Stanislawski takes up the tantalizing question of why Zionism, at a particular stage in its development, became so attractive to certain cosmopolitan intellectuals and artists. With the help of hundreds of previously unavailable documents, published and unpublished, he …
The Jews in a Polish Private Town
Zionist Culture and West European Jewry before the First World War
Easter in Kishinev
On February of 1903, in a town in the southwestern part of the Russian empire, a peasant stumbled upon the corpse of 14-year old Mikhail Rybachenko, bruised and covered with stab wounds, in a garden. The murder immediately fuelled wild rumours that he had been killed by local Jews in need of his Christian blood to prepare their matzah bread. Panic rumours, grounded in sinister superstitions of Jewish sorcery and ritual murder, quickly spread to n…
