Sites of European Antisemitism in the Age of Mass Politics, 1880–1918
This innovative collection of essays on the upsurge of antisemitism across Europe in the decades around 1900 shifts the focus away from intellectuals and well-known incidents to less-familiar events, actors, and locations, including smaller towns and villages.
This "from below" perspective offers a new look at a much-studied phenomenon: essays link provincial violence and antisemitic politics with regional, state, and even transnational trends.
Featuring a diverse array of geographies that include Great Britain, France, Austria-Hungary, Romania, Italy, Greece, and the Russian Empire, the book demonstrates the complex interplay of many factors—economic, religious, political, and personal—that led people to attack their Jewish neighbours.
Sites of European Antisemitism in the Age of Mass Politics, 1880–1918 provides invaluable insights into an important historical period, expanding our understanding of antisemitism in varied contexts.
