Overview

Excerpt from The Jewish Spectre We have here, in the foregoing citations, the composite spectre of Israel and the Jew in nearly every aspect. It com bines the preternatural, the supernatural, the superhuman, and the embodied divine outshining upon the earth. I am sorry to drop down from these sublime heights and speak of vulgar things, but now for many pages I must come to a lower level of this dream country. I must defer to a later chapter remarks on the spectre in Europe; and now merely say that leroy-beaulieu gives us, in the picture quoted below, an indication of the romantic view with which modern history teems. He says of the Jews of Europe' They are like birds just liberated from their cages, so swift is their flight; they were seen to dart from twig to twig of the thickly branched tree of our modern civilisation, as though none of its parts were beyond the reach of their wings.
