Kurzfassung:
During the 1920s, Uri Zvi Grinberg’s attitude to the Jews of Eastern Europe and their Jewish lifestyle underwent fascinating changes. This article will examine how Grinberg’s aliyah to Eretz Israel and his becoming a pioneer influenced how he viewed the Jews of Eastern Europe and their distinctive symbols of Jewish identity. Did the fact that the Third Aliyah pioneers severed all their ties with Jewish tradition and its diaspora manifestations, cause him to reject the experience of shtetl life or did it perhaps give him a new perspective on it? The corpus through which these questions will be explored includes Grinberg’s poetry and journalistic writings from the time he immigrated to Eretz Israel in December 1923 until 1928.
