Jew is only the name we give to that stranger. Each man has his
Jew; it is the other. And the Jews have their Jews. Arthur Miller's
largely forgotten masterpiece, Incident at Vichy is a prescient
examination of the evil that exists in us all, inspired by a
real-life incident in France in which a Gentile gave a Jew his
identity pass during a check, which would have resulted in the Jew
otherwise being sent to a concentration camp. This Methuen Drama
Student Edition of the play includes commentary and notes by Joshua
Polster, Emerson College, US, which investigate the politics of the
play in the context of the African-American civil rights movement
happening at the time; the Vietnam War; The House Committee on
Un-American Activities; and the murder of Kitty Genovese, as well
as exploring Miller's own relationships that were central to the
play including with psychoanalyst Dr Rudolf Loewenstein, his wife
Inge Morath and his friend Elia Kazan.
