History

Theodor Herzl’s visionary work, A Jewish State, published in 1896, laid the foundation for modern political Zionism.

In this groundbreaking text, Herzl advocates for the establishment of a Jewish homeland as a solution to the pervasive anti-Semitism faced by Jews in Europe. He meticulously outlines a plan for creating a sovereign state, covering everything from governance to economic infrastructure.

Herzl’s argument is both pragmatic and passionate, addressing the rights of Jewish people and their need for a national identity. This audiobook brings Herzl’s influential ideas to life, presenting his foresight and the enduring impact of his work on the formation of the State of Israel.

Essential listening for those interested in Jewish history, political theory, and the early seeds of Zionism, this text offers a profound look at one man’s dream for his people’s future.
