Book Synopsis 'The Jew' in Late-Victorian and Edwardian Culture by : E. Bar-Yosef
Book excerpt: The turbulent period from the Boer War to the introduction of the Aliens Act was marked by contradictory imaginings of 'the Jew' - pauper/capitalist, separatist/imposter, ideal colonizer/undesirable immigrant, familiar/alien. This new collection considers the wider colonial context in which these ambivalent attitudes to Jews were produced.
