Beschreibung:
This fascinating book has two aims. The first is to draw attention to the existence of a persisting and virtually unrecognised tradition of 'philosemitism' which manifested itself in Britain and elsewhere in the English-speaking world during every significant international outbreak of antisemitism during the century after 1840. The second is to offer a typology of philosemitism, distinguishing between varieties of support for the Jewish people.
First comprehensive study of pro-Jewish attitudes to complement anti-semitic literatureDiscusses philosemitism in Britain, America, Australia and CanadaNew and original research areaBased on newly accessed primary sourcesReputation of authors
