For this purpose, he carried on theological studies at the Jewish Seminary of Breslau in Germany while pursuing the study of Semitic languages at German universities. He traveled to Europe and studied at the University of Leipzig, where he received his Ph.D. in 1884. He then spent another year in the study of Semitic languages at the Sorbonne, the Collège de France and the École des Langues Orientales Levant Vivantes.

Reviews

[Arthur Read · Rating 3 out of 5]

Dwells at length about the nature of Jewish peoplehood and whether or not they constitute a nation, but disappointingly only briefly touches on the dangers promised by the book's title, i.e. the indignant ferocity of native Arab opposition - both Moslem and Christian - to the highly immoral Zionist program and the looming appalling injustice of forcing it on them through violence and terrorism.
