About this ebook
This 1898 collection of essays profiles famous Jews “who have arisen in the Ghetto from its establishment in the sixteenth century to its slow breaking-up of our own day.” Portraits include Baruch Spinoza, Heinrich Heine, Ferdinand Lassalle, Felix Mendelssohn, Immanuel Kant, Sabbatai Zevi, Solomon Maimon, and Benjamin Disraeli.
Israel Zangwill
Zangwill, the son of Latvian and Polish immigrants, was born in London’s East End and showed literary promise as early as eighteen. A teacher for some years after he graduated from London University, he eventually left the profession to write full-time, publishing hundreds of essays, as well as novels, short stories and plays produced in London and New York. His work concentrated on political, social and Jewish issues but The Big Bow Mystery was his only venture into detective fiction.
