ebooks Trent: What Happened at the Council by John W. O'Malley in History

Description

Heinrich Heine; Franz Kafka; Sigmund Freud; Arnold Schoenberg--all were Jews who considered themselves more European than Jewish. Yet their experience of anti-Semitism and injustice undermined a full commitment to their native German or Austrian heritage. Their writings about Moses are the focal point in this eloquent book about Jewish identity and assimilation; tradition and cultural allegiance.
