France: Heroes and Villains
Summary
The challenges faced by Jews in France, exploring the tension between their loyalty to the country and pervasive societal prejudices. With France split between republicans and conservatives, the Jewish population, although a small minority, achieved remarkable success after emancipation, excelling in various fields. Grappling with societal changes and financial scandals, the French sought scapegoats, often blaming Jews. The discussion touches on Maurice Barres, a prominent member of the Academie Francaise, Theodore Reinach, also a member of the Academie Francaise, and other heroes and villains of the time.
