Vultures Hemorrhages And Zionism

Using a sociohistorical perspective, this work argues that Franz Kafkas parable, The Vulture, specifically depicts the plight of victimized European Jews as they encountered acts of anti-Semitism early in the twentieth century. Kafkas parable demonstrates that it would only be through adhering to a philosophy of cultural Zionism that European Jewry might ultimately survive the brutalities of anti-Semitic behavior.
