The Israeli Republic: An Iranian

Revolutionary's Journey to the Jewish

State

8220 [The Israeli Republic] suggests how the Iranian and Israeli leaders who feel such intense

mutual hostility today actually mirror one another in certain ways, particularly in their

foundational attitudes toward religious authority, political and economic populism, and the West.

That a writer such as Al-e Ahmad, guru to the ayatollahs, liked Israel now seems touching. What

he liked about Israel seems cautionary.b 8212 Bernard Avishai, iForeign Affairs/i /b Written by a

preeminent Iranian writer who helped lay the popular groundwork for the Iranian Revolution, The

Israeli Republic should be required reading for anyone interested in the history and current

political landscape of the Middle East. Documenting Jalal Al-e Ahmad 8217 s two-week-long trip

to Israel in February of 1963, his account 8220 Journey to the Land of Israel 8221 caused a

firestorm when it was published in Iran, upsetting the very revolutionary clerics whose anti-

Western sentiments Al-e Ahmad himself had fueled. Yet, in the thriving Jewish State, Jalal Al-e

Ahmad saw a model for a possible future Iran. Based on his controversial travelogue,

supplemented with letters between the author and his wife, Simin Daneshvar (the first major

Iranian woman novelist), and translated into English for the first time by Samuel Thrope, The

Israeli Republic is a record of Al-e Ahmad 8217 s idealism, insight, and ultimate disillusionment

toward Israel. Vibrantly modern in its sensibility and fearlessly polemical, this book will change

the way you think about the Middle East. bJalal Al-e Ahmad/b was born to a clerical religious

family in Tehran in 1923. A teacher all his life, Al-e Ahmad was an influential and prolific writer

and social critic, whose body of work includes short stories, novels, travelogues, anthropological

studies, essays, reviews, and translations. His best known work is Gharbzadegi (Occidentosis),

which has also been translated into English as 8220 Weststruckness 8221 and 8220

Westoxification, 8221 a cultural critique of westernization in Iran. He died in 1969.
