Event Details

Associate Professor Adam Rovner returns to explore the story of how a small group of people–beleaguered, oppressed, economically disadvantaged, and hated for their religion–managed to form a consensus about the importance of reviving Hebrew in the service of creating a new nation state: Israel. These pioneers invented the Hebrew language, person by person, word by word, and day by day. In this reborn language, and in the land of their history and collective myth, they created a state, educational institutions, a culture, and a world literature—all this during, for the most part, the last century. $5
