Is there a single unified story of the emergence of the State of Israel? In this seminar we will trace the origins of contemporary Israel’s diverse society, discover the plurality and diversity of that society’s stories about itself, and discover some of the roots of its conflicted multiculturalism through a critical reading of texts ranging from works of utopian social and political radicalism to expressions of national-religious messianism. All texts in English translation.
