Without Prejudice - Israel Zangwill - Bog

Bag om Without Prejudice

Without Prejudice is a collection of essays by Israel Zangwill, a Jewish writer and activist who lived in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on Zangwill's experiences as a Jew in England and his views on anti-Semitism and Jewish identity. He discusses the challenges faced by Jews in a society that often discriminated against them, and argues that Jews should be proud of their heritage and culture.The second part of the book is more wide-ranging, with Zangwill discussing topics such as politics, literature, and social issues. He shares his thoughts on the role of the artist in society, the importance of education and intellectual curiosity, and the need for social reform to address the inequalities of the time.Throughout the book, Zangwill writes with wit and insight, offering a unique perspective on the issues of his day. His essays are both thought-provoking and entertaining, making Without Prejudice a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of ideas and the social and cultural issues of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.NOTE This book is a selection, slightly revised, from my miscellaneous work during the last four or five years, and the title is that under which the bulk of it has appeared, month by month, in the ""Pall Mall Magazine."" In selecting, I have omitted those pieces which hang upon other people's books, plays, or pictures--a process of exclusion which, while giving unity to a possible collection of my critical writings in another volume, leaves the first selection exclusively egoisticThis scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
