Summary
"The Dreyfus affair - the infamous account of Jewish army officer and French citizen Alfred Dreyfus unjustly convicted of treason in 1894 - was the most significant political and social crisis of fin-de-siecle Europe. In the first book designed to introduce students to the broad outlines and significant legacies of the affair, the author deftly interweaves text with documents, tracing the course of events. He highlights the many issues connected with the case, including anti-Semitism, militant nationalism, socialism, the birth of modern Zionism, the separation of church and state, and the emergence of the "intellectual" in the political arena."--Jacket.
