The History of Anti-Semitism, Volume 3: From Voltaire to Wagner
"A scholarly but eminently readable tracing of the sources and recurring themes of anti-Semitism."—Library Journal"Poliakov has demonstrated brilliantly how widely and deeply versed he is in his subject."—Economist"Léon Poliakov's work on antisemitism is of enormous importance. As a work of scholarship it is almost without peer. One could have imagined that Poliakov's study might have given a long overdue burial to the longest hatred. Sadly—tragically—it has taken on a new urgency in our time as the images and issues have been resurrected at the beginning of the 21st century."—Michael Berenbaum, Director, Sigi Ziering Institute"Highly recommended without exception."—Choice"Poliakov has shown that anti-Semitism is no chance phenomenon but an emanation of European culture."—Times Literary Supplement
