"The Jewish State" ("Der Judenstaat") by Theodor Herzl: 1946 Hardcover Edition

Description

In 1896, a book appeared in Vienna which was to revolutionize Jewish life and Jewish political thinking as no other book did in thousands of years.
That book was Theodor
Herzl's
landmark "
The Jewish State
" (“Der Judenstaat’).
Herzl’s prophetic analysis of Jewish realities in Europe and his prognosis of Zionism as the only sound solution for “the Jewish problem” began as a journalist’s noble vision but became a political idealism of an entire people.
The secret of Herzl’s influence undoubtedly lies in the wholeness of the Zionist political conception which Herzl and his
Judenstaat
brought to the dispersed Jewish people bereft of a normal national existence.
Living in physical subjugation and psychological depression, the
Judenstaat
was the call to national renaissance and the great vision of Israel re-established as a free nation.
This 1946 hardcover edition of “The Jewish State” was published by the organizations on the occasion of the 50
th
Anniversary of the original publication in Vienna on February 14, 1896.
Printed in New York, this is a collectible original edition that has been in our home Judaica library since it was published 75 years ago.
The binding is intact but there is some visible aging on the inside covers and with the paper book jacket. The book itself appears to have never been read.
There are absolutely no markings on any of the 160 pages.
