Bar-Yosef Eitan, Valman Nadia. 'The Jew' in Late-Victorian and Edwardian Culture: Between the East End and East Africa
Palgrave Macmillan, 2009 - 256 p. ISBN10: 1403997020 ISBN13: 9781403997029 (eng)

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/impostor, ideal colonizer/undesirable immigrant, familiar/alien. Going beyond the racial or cultural dimensions of fin de siecle semitic discourse, this new collection considers the wider colonial context in which ambivalent attitudes to Jews were produced, in particular the nexus of Britain, East Africa and Palestine.

Publisher: Oxford University Press, 2006. 272 pages. Language: English. Victorian Britain is often considered as the high point of "laissez-faire," the place and the time when people were most "free" to make their own lives without the aid or interference of the State. This book, by leading historians of nineteenth-century state and society, asks to what extent that was true and, to the extent that it was, how it worked.
