Description
Heading:
Author: Fraser, John Foster
Title: The Conquering Jew
Place Published: London
Publisher:Cassell & Company
Date Published: 1915
Description: [6], 304 pp. Red cloth stamped in black, dust jacket. First Edition.In spite of its title, Foster is not antisemitic. He admires the Jews for their enterprise and applauds their success. Antisemitism he sees as a relic of the middle ages that persists only in backward societies such as Tsarist Russia. However, he predicts that the success of the Jews will lead to their loss of identity as they become absorbed into gentile society. An optimistic text in light of what happened subsequently but raises questions that are pertinent today.
