Abstract:
Vladimir Jabotinsky is well remembered as a militant leader and father of the right-wing Revisionist Zionist movement, but he was also a Russian-Jewish intellectual, talented fiction writer, journalist, playwright, and translator of poetry into Russian and Hebrew. His autobiography gives a more nuanced picture of Jabotinsky than his popular image, but it was never published in English. Here, editors Brian Horowitz and Leonid Katsis present this much-needed translation, based on a rough draft of an English version that was discovered in Jabotinsky's archive at the Jabotinsky Institute in Tel Aviv
Note:
The first publication in English of ’Story of My Life’ (originally published in Hebrew as ’Sippur Yamai’ [1936]), based on the rough draft of an English translation discovered by Leonid Katsis in Vladimir Jabotinsky archive of the Jabotinsky Institute in Tel Aviv. We have been anable to identify the original translator
