About this book

In the aftermath of World War I, as nations grappled with the consequences of conflict and the quest for identity, "Chosen Peoples" emerges as a profound exploration of Jewish history and identity. Delivered as the inaugural Arthur Davis Memorial Lecture, this pivotal discourse by Israel Zangwill delves into the concept of "chosen-ness" and the enduring significance of cultural heritage. With a focus on the historical narrative and the philosophical underpinnings of Jewish existence, Zangwill invites readers to consider the implications of collective memory and identity. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians alike, "Chosen Peoples" challenges us to reflect on our shared humanity and the unique experiences that shape our world.
