Fritz Haber (1868–1934) and Chaim Weizmann (1874–1952) were both prominent German‐speaking Jewish chemists with rather divergent views on Jewish assimilation and Zionism that only converged upon the rise of the Nazis to power in Germany. While Haber converted to Protestantism and followed the calling of a German patriot during World War One and the turmoil of the Weimar Republic, Weizmann became the leader of the Zionist movement whose efforts led to the founding of Jewish academic institutions in British Mandate Palestine and eventually to the creation of the State of Israel. Weizmann won the support of the British political establishment for the Zionist cause through his invaluable services to the British military as a chemist during World War One. Guided by the timeline of their encounters as well as their mutual correspondence, we trace the ever‐closer relationship between these two towering figures of the 20th century. Had it not been for his ill health, Haber would have likely assumed a leading position at what is today the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot as well as played a direct role in shaping other academic institutions, including The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, in the future State of Israel.

相距遥远且彼此靠近:Fritz Haber和Chaim Weizmann

弗里茨·哈伯(Fritz Haber,1868–1934年)和查姆·魏茨曼(Chaim Weizmann,1874-1952年)都是讲德语的犹太化学家,他们对犹太同化和犹太复国主义的看法截然不同,只是纳粹在德国崛起。在第一次世界大战和魏玛共和国的动荡期间,哈伯converted依新教并追随德国爱国者的呼唤时,魏兹曼成为犹太复国主义运动的领导人,他的努力导致在英国授权巴勒斯坦建立犹太人学术机构,并最终以色列国的建立。魏茨曼通过在第一次世界大战期间以化学家的身份为英军提供的宝贵服务赢得了犹太复国主义者事业的英国政治机构的支持。以他们相遇的时间表以及彼此的往来为指导,我们追溯了20世纪这两个高耸的人物之间越来越紧密的关系。如果不是因为身体不适,Haber可能会在今天的Rehovot魏茨曼科学研究所中担任领导职务,并且在塑造包括耶路撒冷希伯来大学在内的其他学术机构中发挥了直接作用。未来的以色列国。
