The book explores the evolution of modern Hebrew culture before political Zionism, highlighting the synthesis of traditional and modernist ideals alongside influences from Western and non-European cultures. It delves into the transformative encounter between Jews and their ancient homeland, Israel, while examining how the recent European past shaped the conception of the New Hebrew. This mythological figure was envisioned to replace the Eastern European exilic Jew, reflecting a significant cultural shift.
