The Jewish monitor. (Fort Worth-Dallas, Tex.) 191?-1921, 1920-09-24

Jew" never being mentioned in the
book either directly or indirectly, new
ertheless cannot deny its Jewish char.
acter by the manner in which the
types are depicted and certain re-
signed mildness in the point Of view.
But Of course Schnitzler had no desire
to show anything Jewish either in
this his first work or the many sue
cessful plays written soon afterwards.
Professor Bernhardi," however, for
many years forbidden in the old Aus
tria, is nothing but an arraignment of
anti-Jewish civilization. had occasion
to see masterful performance of the
play at the Leipzig Municipal Theatre.
This performance, if nothing else, ex-
planned to me the reason for its sup
preston by the old Austrian censor
ship; it is sharp and unflinching in
dictment of the Austrian world of
scholars and bureaucrats, the per.
verseness and unnaturalness of its ex-
istences and the bigoted anti-Semitism
Of the Austrian government.
Professor Bernhard is a Jewish
scholar, the director of great hospi-
tai. To prevent young female patient
from learning her true condition he
forbids Catholic priest to enter her
ward and hear her confession. This
humanitarian act of the doctor,
causes his associates and the hospital
staff to bring the professor to trial
on charges Of an offense against re-
ligion. The entire anti-Semitic ma
chinery of "justice" gets hold of the
case; Professor Bernhard is remov-
ed from his position and convicted.
1t has been said that the entire plot
of the play is taken from the poets
own life. Schnitzler and his father are
well known physicians in Vienna. But
be it as it may, Professor Benhardi
clearly shows the struggles Of the
Jewish "intellectuals.". However,
Schnitzler has done more than that.
Even though the book is forceful ac-
cusation Of German society which
permits such conditions to continue,
the author was fair enough to point
out the very mistakes of Professor
Bernhard, his missteps as a Jew.
While Bernhard is sufferer, the
play ends with compromise, q half
cynical smile of the professor and a
promise on his part that "he won't
do it again." 1t is like the Jew,-he
sees the folly Of his Catholic environ
ment and realizes that he is in the
right-but he will not fight the battle
to the very limit-the Jew will COM
promise and his soul though torn to
shreds will 90 through with II and re-
turn to this life Of shame and hypo-
critical inconsistency. Such is the
tragedy and the fate Of the modern
intellectual Jew" Of old Austria.
There is greater depth Of feeling
and deeper appreciation of the Jew
ish martyr in Arnold Zweig's Ritual
Murder" The author entities his book
Jewish Tragedy" and 1t is real
tradgedy in every scene, not because
Of the vigor Of the play, for as far as
the dramatic element Of the play is
concerned, II does not belong to the
effective stage productions, but the
drama is great by its composition and
truly Jewish breadth Of conception.
The play depicts an old theme, per-
haps too old to be effective the we'll
known Tisza-Eszlar ritual murder

The Jewish Element in the New
German Literature
BY Jacob Mestel.
Copyright, 1920, by I. ]. P. b.

Lack Of space forbids US to analyze
every individual German man of let
tiers, or even the most prominent mas
tiers of German style. We shall, there
fore, have to content ourselves with
the few remarkable products of gen.
ius and only in so far as the same af-
feet in some way Jewish life or at
least reflect Jewish spirit, Jewish
struggles or Jewish sorrow.
The work Of Max Nordau, although
his Conventional Lies" are far re-
moved from any "Jewishness," has
brought about storm Of criticism bas-
ed on the elements of destruction con-
tanned in the book, which German crit
les were prone to associate with a
Semitic spirit" To be sure, the work
Of Max Nordau and the criticism lev
eled against it. is almost forgotten
and properly belongs to another gen.
GRAFTON. In more recent times Theo>
dore Herzl, Max Brod and Arthur
Schnitzler received a similar treat
ment. Let us take moments glance
at the work of some of the less popu-
lar stars on the armament of Jewish.
German letters and see how the Jew
ish spirit which we discussed in our
former article shines in their produc-
tions.
1t is by no means coincidence that
one of the most popular Jewish Ger
man poets, Schnitzler, and one of the
greatest though less known, Beer-Hof-
mann, have passed through almost the
same stages of literary development.
The "juvenilia" of both poets show be.
yond the shadow of doubt that they
have each grown out Of the same in
tellectual environment, even though
the outward conditions of their youth
were entirely different. Schnitzler, to
name one of many differences in the
mental development Of the two, was a
friend of Theodore Herzl, while Beer
Hoffman, was entirely remote from
any interest in the Zionist movement.
But comparison Of Hofmann's "Graf
Charolle" with Schnitzler's" Marion
ettes," will convince us at once that
both poets have drawn their material
and shaped the destinies Of their prin,
cipal characters using the same liter
airy method. Such cannot be a mere
coincidence. The spirit of the time,
the established social order with all
its advantages and seeming incon-
gruities must find a reflection in the
work Of the poet,-quite irrespective
Of the poets individual self or the
surroundings under which he chances
to live or to create. This element must
even Of itself, cause similarity in the
work Of two poets who like Hoffman,
and Schnitzler grew out from the
same period of historical develop.
ment, a period which could not fail to
reflect its insincerity and perverse-
ness on the sensitive soul of the
true poet. 1t will, therefore, not be
surprising to find that the growing
anti-Semitism Of Germany and Hun
garian attacks against the Jews are
responsible for Schnitzler's "Profes-
sor Bernhard" as we'll as Arnold
Zweig's masterpiece, "The Ritual
Murder in Hungary or Samuels Mis-
sion," and that the world war with
its inevitable Jewish sufferings and
the growing yearning for Jeish deliv-
erance created such works as "Jere-
miah" and Jacobs Dream"

Henry NJ. Alden accepted for it long

Howells was at once q singularly

that he was one of the most prolific
authors of his time. Even while he was
