Zerubavel, Yael - Recovered Roots / Collective Memory and the Making of Israeli National Tradition.

Chicago/London, University of Chicago Press, 1997. xvi, 340 pp., spine slightly discoloured, Very good copy. Paperback. Judasim. Zerubavel focuses on the nationalist reinterpretation of the defence of Masada against the Romans in 73 C.E. and the Bar Kokhba revolt of 133-135; and on the transformation of the 1920 defence of a new Jewish settlement in Tel Hai into a national myth. Zerubavel demonstrates how, in each case, Israeli memory transforms events that ended in death and defeat into heroic myths and symbols of national revival. ISBN: 9780226981581
