Opis

Elie Kedourie has been variously described as an angry young man, a sceptic, a conservative, a pessimist, an imperialist, a Zionist, an anti-Zionist, an anti-Arab, and even starry-eyed about imperialism - all labels which attempt to categorize him but reveal nothing about the man or his work. This book is a collection of essays evaluating Kedourie's work and his legacy to scholarship. Of his own work, three pieces are included and one of his essays: The Jews of Babylon and Baghdad is published here for the first time.

LSE Magazine

"Variously described as an angry young man, a sceptic, a conservative, an Oakeshottian, a pessimist and an imprialist, this book reveals much more about the man and his scholarship."



Jewish Journal of Sociology, vol. 40, Nos. 1&2, 1998

"The contributors to this memorial volume are unanimous in their praise for Elie Kedourie".
