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).
The aim of these lecture notes is to give an essentially
self-contained introduction to the basic regularity theory for
energy minimizing maps, including recent developments concerning
the structure of the singular set and asymptotics on approach to
the singular set. Specialized knowledge in partial differential
equations or the geometric calculus of variations is not required;
a good general background in mathematical analysis would be
adequate preparation.

1912. Writings from Asher Ginsberg who became the central figure in
the movement for Cultural or Spiritual Zionism. Although raised in
a Hasidic family, Ahad Ha'am was soon exposed to secular studies.
The impact of modern philosophy and the sciences led him to abandon
his religious faith and observance. Nonetheless he remained deeply
committed to the Jewish people. It was his attempt to find a
synthesis between Judaism and European philosophy. The essays
included in this volume will give the reader an adequate idea of
the author's attitude on Jewish questions.
