The Lives and Legacies of A.D. Gordon: A Retrospective

Hosted By: Schusterman Center for Israel Studies Brandeis University

Aharon David Gordon (1856-1922) was one of Zionism’s most original and major thinkers, and yet is relatively unknown today. Agricultural worker, philosopher and a kind of secular saint, his ideas deeply influenced Labor Zionism. Now they are being rediscovered by new generations of writers and activists for insights into issues like ethics and nationalism, ecology, community, social justice, and Jewish spiritual and cultural renewal.

This three-part symposium will take place 12:00 – 1:30 PM ET on three consecutive Tuesdays: March 2, 9 and 16. Free and open to all. Advance registration required. Please register individually for each event.

Organized by the Schusterman Center for Israel Studies in cooperation with the Tauber Institute for the Study of European Jewry, both at Brandeis University.
