Abstract

Jewish identity, carrying the historical significance and sense of mission of Jewish people, is rather serious and contradictory to Jews. This thesis tries to analyse Yakov’s journey from his abandonment of Jewish identity to his awakening of Jewishness and his spiritual growth, from his pursuit of exterior freedom to the freedom of all Jews through his suffering in prison and his fighting against those anti-semitic.
