Description ▲
Desde el descubrimiento del monoteismo por los israelitas hasta sus aportaciones en la creacion y el desarrollo del capitalismo, el socialismo y el psicoanalisis, el genio judio se percibe en todas las manifestaciones artisticas, cientificas y del pensamiento. El historiador Paul Johnson senala algunas de las contradicciones inherentes al hecho de ser judio -como, por ejemplo, la racionalidad frente al misticismo- y observa un peculiar nacionalismo, expresado ya en el Libro de los Macabeos, que desemboco en el sionismo. ""Ningun pueblo ha insitido mas firmemente en que la humanidad tiene un destino y la historia un proposito"", dice Johnson. Una historia de cuatro mil anos -de Abraham a la consolidacion del Estado de Israel- en la que se forjo una cultura que ha ejercido una influencia innegable en la formacion del mundo moderno. / ""The world tended to see the Jews as a race which ruled itself in antiquity and set down its records in the Bible; had then gone underground for many centuries; had emerged at last only to be slaughtered by the Nazis; and, finally had created a state of its own, controversial and beleaguered. But these were merely salient episodes. I wanted to link them together, to find and study the missing portions, assemble them into a whole, and make sense of it"" Paul Johnson in his Prologue
