[ha-Safran] Ideology and Landscape

2015-08-23 Thread Celestina Levant

Hello
We would like to introduce a book published by Magnes press:
Ideology and Landscape
Reinterment of Renowned Jews in the Land of Israel, 1904-1967
By Doron Barhttp://www.magnes-press.com/Authors/Doron+Bar.aspx?name=Doron+Bar

The book deals with the formative years of Israel's evolving symbolic 
landscape. The research covers the story of a few dozen Jews who passed away in 
the Diaspora and later their remains were taken to be buried for the second 
time (and sometimes for the third) in Israel. These were Zionists and 
politicians, writers and poets, heroes and public activists whose common 
denominator was that they all passed away in the Diaspora, far and detached 
from the national homeland that they fought for before their tragic death. Only 
later, in an act of repair, their coffins were sent to be buried in the 
sacred Zionist soil, in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv or Dgania. These graves became 
pilgrimage sites and contributed to the design of Israel's symbolic landscape.
