Title ProperCalendars, martyrs, and Palestinian particularism under British rule
LanguageENG
AuthorSorek, Tamir
Publication2014.
Summary / Abstract (Note)This article explores how political calendars and shared martyrology provided
important markers of identity and symbolic tools for political mobilization in
Mandate Palestine. The dates on the emerging Palestinian calendar grew out of
the politicization and nationalization of traditional holy days, as well as the
commemoration of politically significant events of the period, including those
involving local Palestinian martyrs.
