Theodor Herzl (2 May 1860 in Pest, Kingdom of Hungary – 3 May 1904 in Edlach, Austria)
Contents
Zionism
Confronted with antisemitism in Vienna, Hertzl reached the conclusion that anti-Jewish sentiment would make Jewish assimilation impossible, and that the only solution for Jews was the establishment of a Jewish state. His idea was was well received and eventually resulted in the creation of the nation of Israel.
Family life
Hertzl married Julie Naschauer, the 21-year-old daughter of a wealthy Jewish businessman in Vienna on 25 June 1889. The marriage resulted in the birth of two girls and one boy, Hans Hertzl.
Views regarding circumcision
Although the Hertzl family was strongly Jewish, Hertzl and his wife did not support circumcision as required by the alleged Abrahamic covenant, so when Hans was born on 10 June 1891,[1] they refused to have Hans circumcised on the eighth day as was customary for Jews.
Death and reinterment
Hertzl died of heart failure on 3 May 1904 when he was 44 and his son Hans was 13. Hertzl was buried in the Döbling Cemetery of Vienna, but later was exhumed and re-interred in a special cemetery of great honor on Mount Hertzl, a prominence near Jerusalem.[2]
