Streszczenie: | While the history of Zionism in the United States has been the subject of numerous works, American ideological attitudes toward the State of Israel have been less frequently treated in the scholarly literature. This book fills that gap. Envisioning Israel examines the complex and complicated relationship between American Jewry and the Jewish community in lsrael. Allon Gal initiated an international conference to distinguish how North American Jews envisioned lsrael from the late nineteenth century to the present. He selected essays from leading scholars in a variety of fields to appear in this book. Divided thematically, this collection studies topics ranging from Zionist movements in America to Israel's representation in contemporary prayer books. |
