How I stopped being a Jew / Shlomo Sand ; translated by David Fernbach. by Sand, Shlomo, author. London ; New York : Verso, c2014. Subjects Sand, Shlomo.   Jews -- Identity.   National characteristics, Israeli.   Judaism and state -- Israel. ISBN:  9781781686140 (hardcover) : 1781686149 (hardcover) Description:  102 pages ; 22 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  "Shlomo Sand was born in 1946, in a displaced person's camp in Austria, to a Jewish mother and non-Jewish father; the family later migrated to Palestine. As a young man, Sand came to question his Jewish identity, even that of a "secular Jew." With this meditative and thoughtful mixture of essay and personal recollection, he articulates the problems at the center of modern Jewish identity. How I Stopped Being a Jew discusses the negative effects of the Israeli exploitation of the "chosen people" myth and its "holocaust industry." Sand criticizes the fact that, in the current context, what "Jewish" means is, above all, not being Arab and reflects on the possibility of a secular, non-exclusive Israeli identity, beyond the legends of Zionism"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 305.8924 Sa Checked In Add Copy to MyList
