Product Details
This book explores how fin de sicle Britain and Britons displaced spatially-charged apprehensions about imperial decline, urban decay and unpoliced borders onto Jews from Eastern Europe migrating westwards. The myriad of representations of the alien Jew that emerged were the product of, but also a catalyst for, a decisive moment in Britains legal history: the fight for the 1905 Aliens Act. Drawing upon a richly diverse collection of social and political commentary, including fiction, political testimony, ethnography, travel writing, journalism and cartography, this volume traces the shifting rhetoric around alien Jews as they journeyed from the Russian Pale of Settlement to Londons East End. By employing a unique and innovative reading of both the aliens debate and racialized discourse concerned with the Jew, Hannah Ewence demonstrates that ideas about space and 'place critically informed how migrants were viewed; an argument which remains valid in todays world.
