Leopold Kessler (Zionist) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Leopold Kessler (Zionist)
Leopold Kessler 1864-1944 was an engineer, Zionist, newspaperman and not only a witness to developments that created the modern day state of Israel, but was influential upon those events and instrumental in building many of the institutions that supported it before its creation and continue to do so. ==Early life==
Leopold Kessler was a mining engineer whose family had been settled for some 250 years in Gleiwitz, Upper Silesia, in what is modern day Poland, though at the time was Prussia. He was the youngest of five children. Leopold's father Jacob Kessler moved to Tarnowitz, near Gleiwitz, where he married Johanna whose father Jacob Feig was amongst the first Jews to be permitted to settle in that town. Leopold was born on February 4, 1864.〔 〕 He went on to study at the Mining Academy in Freiburg and joined the German Student Korps “Teutonia”, however he then left the “Teutonia” due to suffering from anti-Semitism and as he did not agree with the drinking, brawling and insistence on duelling if anyone felt they had not received appropriate courtesy. Once he left, he was able to expand his social circle and do so in a way that better suited his sensibilities. He went on to study for a year at the Royal School of Mines in Berlin before returning to Freiburg to complete his studies. Once those were completed, he left Germany, as he no longer wanted to live in a country where Jews were treated as second-class citizens. He considered himself a citizen of the world and left to Rhodesia where he was a mining engineer, before going in 1896 to the Transvaal to become General Manager of a mine.
