Following each display case — with explanations written in both Hebrew and English — visitors are also following Herzl, from his childhood in Budapest to his law school days in Vienna, his years as a journalist and playwright — and finally, his evolution as an ardent Zionist committed to the idea of a Jewish homeland in Palestine. The emerging activist is already evident in the display devoted to his university years in Vienna. For instance, there's the draft of the letter he wrote in 1883 resigning from the Albia Students' Association after the members had shown anti- Semitic tendencies. And there is the poem in which he wrote: "My heart yearns to cure/the searing pains of the world . . ." The youthful poet went on to become a prolific writer, a playwright and also the Paris correspondent for the Neue Free Presse of Vienna from 1891 to 1895. He reported on The displays include samples of many letters from around the world. , key events of those years, in- cluding the Dreyfus trial which unleashed a wave of anti-Semitism in France and deeply affected the young journalist. The idea for a Jewish state was already taking hold. On (' Feb. 14, 1896, Herzl publish- ' ed his book, Der Judenstaat (The Jewish State) in which he argued emphatically that the only real solution for Jews worldwide was a Jewish state. Included in the displays is a page from Herzl's diary ex- pressing his elation with the first copies of the book. "My life may now take a new turn," he wrote. There are the various first editions of the book in translation — in German, Hebrew, English, Bulgarian, Russian, Roma- nian and French. By now, the visitor has become immersed in Herzl's life. His thoughts in the diary, the letters and photos — all help bring the man to life. But perhaps the most vivid way of evoking his presence in this quiet museum is the Herzl Room, a display which restores his study in Vienna.
