1846. Known as a dandy, a novelist, a brilliant debater and England's first and only Jewish prime minister, Disraeli (Earl of Beaconfield) is best remembered for bringing India and the Suez Canal under control of the crown. He wrote Alroy following a Middle Eastern tour with a friend that included the Holy Land. Paradoxically, the melodramatic novel, heatedly overwritten, about a pre-Zionist adventurer and martyr, David Alroy, glorified Disraeli's Jewish background just as he was adventuring in another career, politics, at a time when observant Jews were barred from Parliament. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.
Disraeli vividly depicts the appalling conditions of the poor - their pitiful wages, their miserably overcrowded tenements, and thier exploitation by the new breed of powerful industrialists - as an indirect plea for social and political reform and for the fulfilment of his dream of a new, more democratic England.
A scholarly edition of a work by Benjamin Disraeli. The edition presents an authoritative text, together with an introduction, commentary notes, and scholarly apparatus.
