Covering the story of prejudice against Jews from the time of
Christ through the rise of Nazi Germany, "The History of
Anti-Semitism" presents in elegant and thoughtful language a
balanced, careful assessment of this egregious human failing that
is nearly ubiquitous in the history of Europe.
"From Voltaire to Wagner" reviews the period of the European
Enlightenment in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries when
anti-Semitism gradually stopped being an official state policy in
most countries. Highlighting the emancipation of Jews as it spread
across Europe, Poliakov shows how philosophers, statesmen, and some
theologians became concerned with civil rights, yet the
anti-Semitic beliefs of many highly regarded and influential
persons remained a major roadblock to true equality and justice.
The volume ends with the development of racial anti-Semitic
theories bound up in the emerging modern sciences.
