During this period between 1898 and 1902, he published a series of Zionist writings that were clearly meant to be confrontational and challenge those who embraced traditional Judaism. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThese essays, poems, and speeches, given nearly one hundred years ago, have never been translated until now\u003cbr\u003eand are considered some of the most important and exciting of Buber's texts. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFor Buber, Zionism was not primarily a political issue. It implied a reorientation of the entire being, an overcoming of a Diaspora mentality, a catharsis, and a readiness to build in the land of Israel a new, just, free, and creative community.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gilya Gerda Schmidt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0815605757\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780815605751\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Syracuse University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.02lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.32h x 6.28w x 0.78d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/1999 pg. 197","brand":"Gilya Gerda Schmidt","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43926465151231,"sku":"9780815605751","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_d63ecf23-c19b-4552-b0e2-83a2ca761418.jpg?v=1681083220","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-first-buber-gilya-gerda-schmidt-9780815605751","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
