| Summary: | Reviews On the Eve by Bernard Wasserstein, a book which examines the Jews of Europe before the Second World War, Wasserstein's focus is on the Jews themselves and not the persecutors, it examines Jewish communities throughout Europe and their responses to growing nationalism and anti-Semitism in the 1930s. It looks at Jewish society and culture and delves into the differences between Jews in different countries, particularly between Western and Eastern Europe. Anti-Semitism, whether unofficial or official, is also analysed in individual countries, including treatment of Jews under Stalin in the Soviet Union. (Quotes from original text) |
