O knihe

  • Examines why `Jew-hatred` appears to be so persistent throughout history
  • Focuses on the growth of political antisemitism in the 19th century - and uses this as a frame to consider its historical roots, its social and cultural impact, and its chilling consequences
  • The author discusses the role and attitudes of key figures such as Wagner, Nietzsche, and Marx, as well as key texts such as the forged `Protocols of the Elders of Zion`
  • Looks at antisemitism beyond the Holocaust: from the establishment of Israel, to Holocaust denial, and Islamic anti-Zionism
This Very Short Introduction examines and untangles the various strands of antisemitism seen throughout history, from medieval religious conflict to `new` antisemitism in the 21st century. Steven Beller reveals how the phenomenon grew as a political and ideological movement in the 19th century, how it reached it its dark apogee in the worst genocide in modern history - the Holocaust - and how antisemitism still persists around the world today.
