Glasner. Glasner (1856-1924), the head of a major yeshiva and a respected halakhic authority, challenged the Hungarian Orthodox establishment after World War I by championing Zionism and rejecting the long-held principle of communal separation. His activism helped spark a national Jewish awakening in Transylvania and ultimately led to fierce opposition, his resignation, and his immigration to Jerusalem. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book blends biography and intellectual history, and commemorates the journey of a sharp, independent thinker who viewed rationalism, humanism, and Jewish nationalism as authentic elements of tradition. It also opens a door to the often-forgotten modernist wing of Hungarian Orthodoxy and depicts how World War I reframed Jewish identity. What is more, it uncovers overlooked chapters in the history of Hungarian Jewry that continue to influence Orthodox life today. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Academic Studies Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47891481624727,"sku":"9798897831258","price":7798.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798897831258.webp?v=1781183844","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/from-hungarian-orthodoxy-separatism-to-fervent-zionism-the-life-and-times-of-rabbi-m-s-glasner-9798897831258","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
