The Hebrew novelist and political essayist, Amoz Oz (1939-2018),
arguably Israel's leading intellectual, was fond of describing
himself as using two different pens - the first used to write works
of prose and fiction, and the other to criticize the government and
advocate for a political change. This volume revisits the two pens
parable. It brings together scholars from various disciplines who
assess Amos Oz's dual role in Israeli culture and society as an
immensely popular novelist and a leading public intellectual. Next
to offering an intellectual portrait, the chapters in this book
highlight some of Oz's seminal works, examine their reception,
evaluate key political and literary debates he was involved in, as
well as trace some of the connections between the two realms of his
activity. This book is a fascinating read for students,
researchers, and academics of Israeli politics, history,
literature, and culture. The chapters in this book were originally
published as a special issue of the Journal of Israeli History and
are accompanied by a new afterword by the Israeli novelist Lilach
Nethanel.
