The Old New Land
The Old New Land (German: Altneuland; Yiddish: אַלטנײַלאַנד, romanized: Altnayland) is a utopian novel published in German by Theodor Herzl, the founder of political Zionism, in 1902. It was published six years after Herzl's political pamphlet, Der Judenstaat (The Jewish State) and expanded on Herzl's vision for a Jewish return to the Land of Israel, which helped Altneuland become one of Zionism's establishing texts. It was translated into Yiddish by Israel Isidor Elyashev (Altnayland. Warsaw, 1902), and into Hebrew by Nahum Sokolow as תֵּל־אָבִיב, Tel Aviv (Warsaw, 1902). The name was adopted for the newly founded city of Tel Aviv.
