This book provides a historical and cultural analysis of the perception of Jews in late-Victorian and Edwardian Britain.

The turbulent period from the Boer War to the introduction of the Aliens Act was marked by contradictory imaginings of ‘the Jew’ – pauper/capitalist, separatist/imposter, ideal colonizer/undesirable immigrant, familiar/alien. This new collection considers the wider colonial context in which these ambivalent attitudes to Jews were produced.
