Abstract

This article examines the unique interaction of Zionists and Russia's elite writers and poets in the creation of the journal "Sborniki safrut." In the revolutionary years 1917-19, a genuine interpenetration of Jewish and Russian culture occurred; writers and thinkers found common ground on the basis of utopian urges, demands for political justice, literary collaboration, and a rethinking of Christian-Jewish relations.
