THE CLASSIC PORTRAIT OF A VANISHED PEOPLE
ROTH, JOSEPH
EILEEN DACEY
IN THIS MASTERPIECE OF JEWISH IDENTITY, FINALLY TRANSLATED INTO ENGLISH MORE THAN 70 YEARS AFTER IT WAS FIRST WRITTEN, NOVELIST JOSEPH ROTH EXAMINES THE CONCEPT OF JEWISH IDENTITY YEARS BEFORE THE ONSET OF NATIONAL SOCIALISM AND LOOKS AHEAD WITH APPREHENSION TO GERMANY'S FUTURE. EMOTIONALLY RAVAGED BY THE WHIRLWIND EVENTS OF WEIMAR GERMANY, HE DARED TO WRITE ABOUT THE HISTORICAL SCHISM BETWEEN EASTERN AND WESTERN JEWS, WARNING OF THE FALSE COMFORTS OF MATERIALISM AND ASSIMILATION AND URGING HIS FELLOW JEWS TO EMBRACE THEIR HERITAGE AND THE LAND OF PALESTINE AS A NASCENT JEWISH HOMELAND. THE WANDERING JEWS SERVES AS AN HISTORICAL AND JOURNALISTIC DOCUMENT TO THE EUROPEAN JEWISH EXPERIENCE AS A CRITICAL JUNCTURE OF WORLD HISTORY. © 2000
