HERZL, Theodor (1860-1904). Der Judenstaat. Versuch einer moderner Lösung der Judenfrage. Leipzig and Vienna: M. Breitenstein Verlag-Buchhandlung, 1896.
First edition of the work that laid the foundations of modern political Zionism. Herzl calls for the creation of a Jewish State as the necessary political solution for the so-called ‘Jewish question’. It was this work that really crystallized the idea of a national home for the Jews as an autonomous political force, as the alternative to complete assimilation or the creation of ghettos in non-Jewish communities. The Jewish State that was created in Palestine within fifty years of his death was largely founded on the vision and practical methods of Herzl, expressed in this manifesto (PMM). PMM 381.
Octavo (233 x 155mm). With the leaf 2/8 inserted before the title. Modern black morocco, with red spine label lettered in gilt (small chip to spine label, slight rubbing at joints).
