About This Item
New York: Weindenfeld & Nicolson , 1993. 1st Edition. Softcover. Near fine paperback copy; edges very slightly dust-dulled and nicked. Remains particularly well-preserved overall; tight, bright, and clean. Physical description: xiv, 255 p., [32] p. of plates: illustrations; 24 cm. Summary: Pp. 187-196, ""A New Variety of Anti-Semitism"", discuss the position that in 1900 and after, the chief attackers of the Jewish presence and influence were populist and democratic (mainly young people, especially students and Catholic priests) rather than reactionary and aristocratic. Most of them started out as liberals and turned to a new kind of radicalism, questioning the possibility and desirability of Jewish assimilation which had until then been advocated by both Jews and non-Jews. Expressions of antisemitism were directed mainly at the assimilated Jews of Hungary, and principally against those in Budapest and their prosperity, power, and influence. See the index for other references to antisemitism. Subjects: Budapest History. Civilization. Budapest (Hungary) Civilization. Budapest (Hungary) History. Hungary Budapest. Hungary Budapest history. Genre: History. Illustrated.
