About this book
Creators: Nahum Sokolow (1859-1936), S. Pichon (1857-1933) [Author of introduction, etc.], and Israel Solomons (1860-1923) [Contributor] "History of Zionism, 1600-1918, Vol. 2 (of 2)" by Nahum Sokolow is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work provides a detailed examination of the development of the Zionist movement from the year 1600 up to the end of World War I, focusing particularly on its manifestations in England and France. It explores both the efforts by Jewish figures and those by non-Jews that supported Zionist ideals during this significant period. The opening of the volume details the background and structure of the work, mentioning its encyclopedic nature and the need for a comprehensive documentation approach due to the complexities surrounding Zionism. It notes supplementary chapters that aim to fill narrative gaps and recounts key figures and historical events relevant to the Jewish national movement. The introduction by M. Stéphane Pichon emphasizes the societal and political implications of Zionism, positioning it within a broader quest for justice and national restoration for the Jewish people, while also hinting at the foundations laid for significant future developments, particularly around the time of the Peace Conference post-war.
