  • Shadows Over the Land Without Shade: Iconizing the Israeli Kibbutz in the 1950S, Acting-Out Post Palestinian-Nakba Cultural Trauma
    Volume One, Number One Shadows over the Land Without Shade: Iconizing the Israeli Kibbutz in the 1950s, acting-out post Palestinian-Nakba Cultural Trauma Lior Libman Abstract: The kibbutz – one of Zionism's most vital forces of nation-building and Socialist enterprise – faced a severe crisis with the foundation of the State of Israel as State sovereignty brought about major structural, political and social changes. However, the roots of this crisis, which I will describe as a cultural trauma, are more complex. They go back to the pioneers' understanding of their historical action, which emanated arguably from secularized and nationalized Hasidic theology, and viewed itself in terms of the meta-historical Zionist-Socialist narrative. This perception was no longer conceivable during the 1948 war and thereafter. The participation in a war that involved expulsion and killing of civilians, the construction of new kibbutzim inside emptied Palestinian villages and confiscation by old and new kibbutzim of Palestinian fields, all caused a fatal rift in the mind of those who saw themselves as fulfilling a universal humanistic Socialist model; their response was total shock. This can be seen in images of and from the kibbutz in this period: in front of a dynamic and troublesome reality, the Realism of kibbutz-literature kept creating pastoral-utopian, heroic-pioneering images. The novel Land Without Shade (1950) is one such example. Written by the couple Yonat and Alexander Sened, it tells the story of the establishment of Kibbutz Revivim in the Negev desert in the 1940s. By a symptomatic reading of the book’s representation of the kibbutz, especially in relation to its native Bedouin neighbors and the course of the war, I argue that the iconization of the kibbutz in the 1950s is in fact an acting-out of the cultural trauma of the kibbutz, the victimizer, who became a victim of the crash of its own self-defined identity.

  • Religious and Social Meanings of the Holy Land Ways of Knowing 2312
    Religious and Social Meanings of the Holy Land Ways of Knowing 2312 Chancey and Lander JTerm 2017 [email protected] and [email protected] Jan. 6-18, 2017 Course Description The current state of Israel comprises regions that the three Abrahamic religions have regarded as holy for centuries. Although the concept of a “Holy Land” permeates ancient Jewish writings, it was early Christian pilgrims who first employed the biblical term “Holy Land” to describe the territory of the Bible. In the seventh century, Islam also forged a connection to this area, more specifically Jerusalem, regarding it as the site of the prophet Muhammed’s night-time journey (‘Isra) to heaven. Through archaeological and site fieldtrips, readings, and lectures by experts in the field, students will investigate the diverse meanings of the Holy Land to the adherents of the various traditions who have regarded the region as religiously significant for more than three millennia. Students will learn how the two disciplines of archaeology and religious studies combine to inform a deeper understanding of the Holy Land than a single disciplinary study. Students will also explore the complexity of daily life in the modern state of Israel. Student Learning Outcomes Ways of Knowing 1. Students will demonstrate knowledge of more than one disciplinary practice. 2. Students will explain how bringing more than one practice to an examination of the course topic contributes to knowing about that topic. Philosophical/Religious/Ethical Inquiry, level I 1. Students will be able to describe and explain some of the general features and principal theoretical methods of one of the fields of philosophy, religious studies, or ethics.
