註釋
On pp. 283-290, examines modern antisemitism as a component of Western culture, caused by the great Jewish emigration westward after 1880 which aroused racist and Social Darwinist prejudices, economic jealousy, and psychological fears. Politicians capitalized on antisemitic stereotypes, holding Jews responsible for all ills. Pp. 127-129, "Jews and Modernism, " discuss the significant role of Jews in the modernist movement. Traditionalists, Catholics, and nationalists denounced modernism as a Jewish danger. Paradoxically, English modernists and German expressionists were fierce antisemites, seeing traditionalist and religious Jews as the archetype of the 19th century society they opposed.
