âThe Master â is a 1907 novel by British author Israel Zangwill (1864â1926). A thought-provoking novel that tackles such issues as class and the creation of art, based on the life of his friend and illustrator George Wylie Hutchinson. Contents include: âSolitudeâ, âThe Dead Man Makes His First And Last Appearanceâ, âThe Thoughts Of Youthâ, â'Man Proposes'â, âPeggy The Water-Drinkerâ, âDisillusionsâ, etc. Zangwill was a leading figure in cultural Zionism during the 19th century, as well as close friend of father of modern political Zionism, Theodor Herzl. In later life, he renounced the seeking of a Jewish homeland in Palestine. Other notable works by this author include: âDreamers of the Ghettoâ (1898) and âGhetto Tragediesâ (1899). This classic work is being republished now in a new edition complete with an introductory chapter from âEnglish Humourists of To-Dayâ by J. A. Hammerton. |
