The Roman-Jewish wars of 66-70, 115-117 & 132-135 CE destroyed the territorial, social, & political bases of militant Jewish nationalism. Successive defeats brought a Roman ban on Jewish residence in Jerusalem & on proselytization. Most of the Jewish population of Judaea, in southern Palestine, was annihilated or exiled. The creative heart of Judaism shifted to Galilee, where the study of rabbinic law & homiletics flourished, mostly in Hebrew, & the Mishna -- the basis of the Talmud -- was edited by the Tannaim (Mishna teachers). This culture was an implicit rejection of Greco-Roman civilization & values in favor of a more exclusivist religious-cultural nationalism. It is argued in this paper that this form of nationalism, though rare in the ancient world, anticipates more recent national movements of defeated peoples. 61 References.

Looks at how the poets William Butler Yeats (1865-1939) and Chaim Nachman Bialik (1873-1934) were among the builders of their respective Irish and Jewish national cultures. Argues that the creative powers of both Yeats and Bialik were set free by the national movements of which they were a part, and that the national struggle for self-determination was in effect mirrored on the private scale by the poet striving for artistic freedom and originality.
