About This Book

A detailed documentary survey traces diplomatic responses to the Jewish Question from the mid-eighteenth century through the First World War, assembling protocols, treaty stipulations, and official correspondence. It organizes interventions on humanitarian grounds, legal claims to protection, consular practices, and multilateral conference outcomes, citing congresses and treaties that shaped minority and religious liberty practice. A substantial section addresses Palestine and allied wartime commitments toward Jewish national restoration, while appendices and notes record earlier episodes of international anti-Semitism and legal precedent, offering a practical documentary resource for postwar deliberations.

About the Author

Lucien Wolf

Lucien Wolf was a prominent Jewish historian and journalist known for his critical examination of anti-Semitic narratives in early 20th-century Europe. He contributed significantly to the discourse surrounding Jewish issues, particularly through his works that addressed the myths and misconceptions about Jewish influence in global affairs. His notable publications include "Notes on the Diplomatic History of the Jewish Question," which provides a detailed analysis of diplomatic documents related to Jewish rights, and "The Myth of the Jewish Menace in World Affairs," where he debunks the fabricated "Protocols of the Elders of Zion." Wolf's writings remain important for understanding the historical context of anti-Semitism and the Jewish experience.
