Drumont, Edouard. La France Juive [“Jewish France”]

Designed to portray the Jew as the enemy of mankind. The title points to the author’s belief that Jews have come to dominate every aspect of French life. The anti-Semitic activities of Eduard Drumont (1844-1917) began prior to the Dreyfus Affair, but certainly climaxed during “L’Affaire.” Drumont was the publisher of La Libre Parole - notoriously anti-Jewish and anti-Dreyfusard. In the view of historian Jacob Katz, Drumont’s views were as extreme as those expressed later by the German Nazis. See Norman L. Kleeblatt, The Dreyfus Affair (1987), pp. 76-77
