Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Jew in English Literature: As Author and as Subject There is no one, perhaps, who realizes the possible limitations of this work more than the writer. I freely confess that, when I undertook it, I had no adequate conception of the vastness of its scope, or of the fertility of the ground I sought to cover. Why I did undertake it, or indeed why at all an American Rabbi, fully occupied with his professional duties, and in a city of limited library facilities, should have attempted to cover this phase of English literature, with the Atlantic Ocean between him and the source of his material, is a question apart. The attempt has been made, and if it will but somewhat open the eyes of others to the no small part the Jews have taken, both subjectively and objectively, in English literature, the attempt is not in vain. The work is a pioneer of its kind. There have been some essays in this direction, one of the best being an article on "The Jew in Poetry and Drama," by Charles B. Mabon, in Vol. XI. of the Jewish Quarterly Review. But the is no work of any length that has come to my knowledge, and none at all that deals with Jewish authors.
