2-6. Five documents: "Some facts and conclusions from literature recently distributed relating to the mentioned member", by "Kevutzat Haverim Tze'irim"; invitation to a coffee-shop in Jerusalem, 1951; invitation to the founding session of "Merkaz HaIvrim HaTze'irim" in Tel Aviv, 1951 (opening speech: A. Amir, A. Shelach [Yonatan Ratosh]); "Declaration" form of consent concerning the movement's platform and goals; a printed letter from the "Alef" editorial staff, enclosed with issue no. 3, including a subscription form.
The "Alef" periodical of the "HaIvrim HaTze'irim" movement (formerly "Ha'Va'ad LeGibush HaNo'ar HaIvri") was published and edited by Aharon Amir and Yonatan Ratosh together with various movement members, including Adaya Horon (A.G. Horon), Uzi Ornan [Ratosh's brother], Amos Keinan, Binyamin Tamuz and others. The movement was founded in 1939 and reached its peak in the 1940s, influencing political thought, art, literature and the intellectual life in Eretz Israel and the State of Israel. Its members wished to draw a direct link between people who lived in Eretz Israel in the second millennium BC and the Jewish people in Eretz Israel in the 20th century, trying to create an old-new culture and to disengage from Jewish tradition. The name "Kena'anim" was given to the group, ironically, by the poet Avraham Shlonsky. Issue no.11 included in this lot details the movement's platform and goals concerning various aspects of life. A total of 19 non-consecutive issues were published between 1948-1953. Size and condition varies.
