Anti-Semite and Jew: An Exploration of the Etiology of Hate

Anti-Semite and Jew: An Exploration of the Etiology of Hate

Jean-Paul Sartre

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

With a new preface by Michael Walzer Jean-Paul Sartre's book is a brilliant portrait of both anti-Semite and Jew, written by a non-Jew and from a non-Jewish point of view. Nothing of the anti-Semite either in his subtle form as a snob, or in his crude form as a gangster, escapes Sartre's sharp eye, and the whole problem of the Jew's relationship to the Gentile is examined in a concrete and living way, rather than in terms of sociological abstractions.

    ясно, що більшість сартрових текстів буде вічно актуальна, але нащо ж так сильно?
    у тих місцях, де йшлося про "покажіть ваших єврейських поетів, художників і вчених" чи про те, що навіть на тіло своє єврей змушений весь час дивитися збоку, наче воно йому не належить, мені аж незручно ставало від типовості інструментарію.
