Description

Explore the deep history of the Bruderhof in this detailed account by Yaacov Oved. This book examines how a steadfast commitment to religion, family, and community has allowed this movement to maintain its unique way of life for over ninety years. Set against the backdrop of the aftermath of World War I, the narrative follows the origins of a generation of German adolescents who sought meaning outside of traditional materialism. Born from youth movements that celebrated nature and a simpler way of living, the Bruderhof was shaped by individuals like Eberhard and Emmy Arnold. While the author identifies various social tensions within the movement, the book presents the Bruderhof as a model of communal stability. This historical study provides a look at how a group can remain true to its core values while navigating the changes of the modern world. It is an essential read for those interested in social history, religious movements, and the study of communal living.
