註釋
Analyzes the interaction between nationalism and antisemitism in Romanian policy and national ideology, forged in the second half of the 19th century. Discusses the international political context of the "Jewish question" in Romania during the debates at the Congress of Berlin (1878) concerning the emancipation of the Romanian Jews. Emphasizes the strong opposition to equal rights for the Jews expressed by leading Romanian political, religious, and intellectual figures. Examines the antisemitic arguments used by six personalities in Romanian cultural and intellectual life: M. Kogălniceanu, T. Maiorescu, A.D. Xenopol, M. Eminescu, B.P. Hasdeu, and N. Iorga. Notes that they justified their anti-Jewish attitudes mostly with national and economic arguments, and less with racial or religious prejudices. Remarks on the frequent use of an antisemitic claim regarding the "quality" of Romanian Jews, exhibiting stigmatization and contempt for "Polish" Ashkenazi Jews. Concludes that the specifics of Romanian antisemitism explain Romania's paradoxical record during the Holocaust, and the partial survival of the Romanian Jewish community.
