On a hill overlooking Jerusalem, the once-mocked Theodor Herzl lies buried in honor as the man who envisioned the modern Jewish state. Neither warrior nor financier, neither theologian nor trained statesman, he was simply a foresighted Viennese journalist who at the beginning of the 20th century brought together from all parts of Europe those Jews able to assess the coming anti-Semitism and join him in the Zionist movement. Like Moses, Herzl led his people to the promised land but did not get to enter it—dying in his forties, alone, and broken by the still-unrealized task. Here is his story.

The first biography in more than a generation of the father of modern political Zionism and in effect the state of Israel. Drawing extensively on his diaries as well as his published works, this intellectual biographical follows Herzl's transformation from a private person into the founder and leader of a political movement which made the quest for a Jewish state into a player in international politics. Contrary to the conventional view which saw the Dreyfus affair as the trigger for Herzl's loss of belief in the promise of Jewish emancipation, Avineri shows how it was the political crisis of the Austro-Hungarian Habsburg Empire, torn apart by contending national movements, which convinced Herzl of the need for a Jewish polity. In response to the wide resonance for his 1896 THE JEWISH STATE, Herzl convened the first Zionist Congress in Basel in 1897, which established the World Zionist Organization with its representative and elected institutions; this in turn became the foundation for Israel's democratic political system. In his efforts to gain international support for a Jewish state, Herzl met with the Ottoman Sultan, the German Emperor Wilhelm II, Pope Pius X, British, Russian and German ministers, as well as an enormous number of other government and public opinion leaders of most European countries. By the time of his early death in 1904 at the age of 44, Herzl succeeded in putting Zionism on the map of world politics, no longer an esoteric idea held by a small group of Jewish intellectuals in Eastern Europe.

Theodor Herzl had been a successful Viennese journalist and a less successful playwright with no political ambitions. That changed in 1896, when he published The Jewish State. The following year he convened a Zionist Congress in Basel, Switzerland. The Congress founded the Zionist Organization in order to establish a national home for the Jewish people in Palestine, recognized and guaranteed by public international law. As Herzl transformed himself in just a few years from writer and editor into the leader of an international political movement, he learned politics and diplomacy on the run--and to great effect. In his efforts to gain broad support for his vision, Herzl met with the Ottoman sultan; the German emperor; the king of Italy; the pope; British, Russian, and German ministers; as well as a great number of other government and public opinion leaders of many European countries. By the time of his early death in 1904 at the age of forty-four, Herzl had transformed Jewish public discourse and made the idea of a Return to Zion into a reality, albeit still a weak one, in international politics.

Theodor Herzl (1860—1904) was the Paris correspondent of the Austrian Neue Freie Presse when he took a momentous decision in June 1895: he would bring about the creation of a state for the Jews. In his attempt to realise this dream, he became the greatest figure of modern Jewish history and is today seen as the father of the State of Israel. The catalyst for Herzl's 'conversion' is usually seen as the Dreyfus affair, which made him realise the impossibility of Jewish existence in Europe. The truth is more complicated and perhaps more dramatic, involving Herzl's background in the context of central Europe's Jewish bourgeoisie, the explosion of anti-Semitism in fin de siècle Paris and Vienna, and not least Herzl's own personal frustrations and dreams. Once decided, his 'state of the Jews' was to be not only the solution to the physical threat to the Jews, but it would also liberate them from their ghetto existence, and provide them with the 'inner freedom' which, from personal experience, Herzl thought they lacked. Herzl's state was to be a model, liberal society, at the forefront of human progress, integrated and at peace with the world community. A century later, this may look naïve - yet, in his vision, Herzl very much speaks to the present age.

"In the second half of the nineteenth century a handful of statesmen, empire-builders, adventurers, and visionaries appeared on the stage of European history and proceeded to reshape the world in their own image--Cavour, Bismarck, Disraeli, Gladstone, Karl Marx. The results of their inspired, herculean undertakings are still manifest after three-quarters of a century, two world wars, the Cold War, and countless political and social upheavals. Perhaps the most colorful and unusual of these visionaries--but in the light of history, certainly not the least consequential--was Theodor Herzl (1860-1904), the founder of modern Zionism. Until 1895 Herzl was a boulevardier, a moderately successful playwright, and the Paris correspondent for Vienna's leading newspaper, Die Neue Freie Presse--in short, he was an assimilated nineteenth-century Jew. Then the Dreyfus Affair awakened him to the dangers of anti-Semitism. In a feverish, semimystical state he wrote a pamphlet that was to affect the lives of literally millions of people, The Jewish State: An Attempt at a Modern Solution of the Jewish Question. More importantly, he set afoot the plans that led to the modern state of Israel. Herzl devoted the last nine years of his life to his vision of creating an independent, sovereign Jewish state, traveling back and forth across Europe and the Middle East, negotiating with European sovereigns, statesmen, financiers, Jewish leaders, and even the Sultan of Turkey. Although Herzl is undoubtedly the central figure in this colorful drama, the secondary characters are hardly less unusual: Albert and Edmond de Rothschild, Jewish philanthropists who were understandably hesitant about underwriting a new nation; The Reverend William Hechler, chaplain at the British Embassy in Vienna, who claimed to have discovered a justification for the restoration of the Jews to Palestine in a seventh-century prophecy of the Caliph Omar; Count Philip Michael de Nevlinski, a destitute Polish nobleman and free-lance diplomat who promised to smooth Herzl's way into the Turkish Sultan's court; an Anglo-Jewish professional soldier, Colonel Albert Edward Williamson Goldsmid, the atheist Max Nordau, the Grand Duke of Baden, and Arthur Schnitzler, among others. The man who could note with such conviction in his diary that he had founded the 'Jewish state' after organizing and leading the first Zionist congress in Basel, Switzerland, in 1897 (made up of a few like-minded visionaries who could not always agree even among themselves) and added that 'certainly in fifty [years] everyone will agree' would hardly have been surprised when, fifty years later, on May 14, 1948, the State of Israel was proclaimed. And in this colorful biography Amos Elon tells the incredible story of Theodor Herzl with all the drama and panache of Israel's 'founding father.'"--Jacket.
