{"product_id":"exiled-in-the-homeland-donna-robinson-divine-9780292725683","title":"Exiled in the Homeland: Zionism and the Return to Mandate Palestine","description":"\u003cp\u003e Offering a new perspective on Zionism, \u003ci\u003eExiled in the Homeland\u003c\/i\u003e draws on memoirs, newspaper accounts, and archival material to examine closely the lives of the men and women who immigrated to Palestine in the early twentieth century. Rather than reducing these historic settlements to a single, unified theme, Donna Robinson Divine's research reveals an extraordinary spectrum of motivations and experiences among these populations. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Though British rule and the yearning for a Jewish national home contributed to a foundation of solidarity, \u003ci\u003eExiled in the Homeland\u003c\/i\u003e presents the many ways in which the message of emigration settled into the consciousness of the settlers. Considering the benefits and costs of their Zionist commitments, Divine explores a variety of motivations and outcomes, ranging from those newly arrived immigrants who harnessed their ambition for the goal of radical transformation to those who simply dreamed of living a better life. Also capturing the day-to-day experiences in families that faced scarce resources, as well as the British policies that shaped a variety of personal decisions on the part of the newcomers, \u003ci\u003eExiled in the Homeland\u003c\/i\u003e provides new keys to understanding this pivotal chapter in Jewish history. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Donna Robinson Divine\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 029272568X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780292725683\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Texas Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 263\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.86lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.60d","brand":"Donna Robinson Divine","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44598224290047,"sku":"9780292725683","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dbe1ddcf-9951-4423-a36d-f314f435d3f5.jpg?v=1702381295","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/exiled-in-the-homeland-donna-robinson-divine-9780292725683","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
