The Jewish State - Theodor Herzl

The Jewish State - Theodor Herzl Theodor Herzl (Hebrew: Binyamin Ze'ev Herzl) (May 2, 1860 ? July 3, 1904) was an Austro-Hungarian journalist who was the father of modern political Zionism. From April, 1896, when the English translation of his Der Judenstaat (The State of the Jews) appeared, Herzl became the leading spokesman for Zionism. Herzl was born in Pest, the Kingdom of Hungary (today the eastern half of Budapest, then a separate city) to a Jewish family originally from Zemun, the Kingdom of Hungary (today in Serbia). When Theodor was 18 his family moved to Vienna, Austria-Hungary. There, he studied Law, but he devoted himself almost exclusively to journalism and literature, working as a correspondent for the Neue Freie Presse in Paris, occasionally making special trips to London and Istanbul. Later, he became literary editor of Neue Freie Presse, and wrote several comedies and dramas for the Viennese stage and others that transformed his thoughts.
