Description
Pete Quinones returns to the show to discuss the important 1890 series from the Jesuit journal La Civiltà Cattolica titled “The Jewish Question in Europe.”
Published a century after the French Revolution and Jewish emancipation, the articles analyzed the rising influence of Jewish communities in finance, politics, and culture during the spread of liberalism, socialism, and secularism in Europe. Our discussion examines the historical context of the series and why its observations made more than 135 years ago resonate today.
