New Palestine (magazine)
New Palestine was a magazine founded in December 1919,[1][2] initially as a weekly[3][4] and later as a bi-weekly, published in New York.[4] It was the official organ of the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA).[3][5][6]
It started as a four-page publication.[2] The first issue in January 1920 read: "For the Restoration and up-building of a Jewish Palestine."[1] Its managing editor was Isidore Cooperman.[5]
It evolved from The Maccabean Magazine by Louis Lipsky[7] and Meyer Wolf Weisgal.[8][9]
Contributors included Menachem Ribalow (1895–1953), who published numerous articles in New Palestine,[10] and the philanthropist and businessman Jacob Henry Schiff (born Jakob Heinrich Schiff; January 10, 1847 – September 25, 1920).[11]
In 1934, Samuel Caplan was editor.[12]
Ludwig Lewisohn (May 30, 1882 – December 31, 1955) novelist, literary critic, the drama critic for The Nation and then its associate editor, was its editor[13] and editorial-writer[5] between 1943 and 1948.[14]
