Asher Ginsberg (1856-1927), also known as Ahad Ha-am, was a
prominent pre-state Zionist thinker and considered the founder of
Cultural Zionism, fi ghting for what he described as "a Jewish
state and not merely a state of Jews." This 1912 collection of
essays, translated by Leon Simon, expresses his philosophy and
beliefs on Zionism and other Jewish topics, helping the reader
build an understanding of Ahad Ha-am and his era. Sir Leon Simon
was among the original members of the Zionist Commision to
Palestine, and was particularly interested in the cultural aspect
of Jewish nationalism and the Hebrew revival. He published several
translations of Ahad Ha-am's work and wrote Studies in Jewish
Nationalism (1920) and Essays on Ancient Greek Literature (1951; in
Hebrew).
