It was published in English by the Jewish Publication Society in 1911 (the original appeared in German in 1892). It had belonged to my mother's deceased brother. I probably read it four or five times before I went off to college, and I have often regretted not taking it with me--my parents wouldn't have minded, but I wanted to "travel light" and did. Many of the essays are fine works of scholarship and interpretation, and all are immensely readable. Finding that this reprint was available was a pleasant surprise, and re-reading "A Jewish King in Poland" (my favorite), "Moses Maimonides", "Heinrich Heine and Judaism," "The Music of the Synagogue" and the rest has been a very rewarding blast from the past. You don't have to be Jewish to love Nathan's hot dogs, or this book, and it is a fine reminder of the very rich cultural life of European Jewry before the war.

Only buy if you already have studied Jewish history By Love the 19th century Worth the price I paid for the Kindle version, this is an old, old book that seems to be a collection of essays and addresses given by this French Jewish intellectual (I think.) I read it while I'm walking on the treadmill and it makes the time go really fast. You have to read it within its historic context. His is the grand old declarative hagiographic, ancestor-worshipping style, before people had to substantiate their knowledge with pesky footnotes and evidence they had done real research. His thesis in many an article is that Jewish values, learning, people, had a great, widespread influence on every positive development of the western world. People who are looking for reasons to hate Jews could really takes this material the wrong way -- whether it was a hundred years ago or today. I am enjoying reading it because, as you know by now, I "love the nineteenth century."
