The End of the Century

Item

Abstract

These two Ladino feuilletons (“On Antisemitism” and “The End of the Century”) were written by Ottoman maskil Barukh Mitrani, a rabbi and intellectual who sought to bridge between East and West in the Jewish diaspora. Mitrani combines aspects of feuilletons and traditional sermons in these texts as he criticizes elements of modernization and modern antisemitism.
