Review

His book 'Trials of the Diaspora' is magisterial...No Judaica library should be without it. Jeremy Rosen, Jewish Telegraph A torrent of primary-source material. Diarmaid MacCulloch, London Review of Books Julius...is nothing if not a superb rhetorician. Diarmaid MacCulloch, London Review of Books Anthony Julius' erudite and scholarly work will prove indispensable in the struggle against this form of racial prejudice. David Harounoff, Tribune Magazine A strong, sombre book on an appalling subject. Harold Bloom, New York Review of Books Julius is a truth-teller...I am grateful for his calm balance...[and his] extraordinary moral strength. Harold Bloom, New York Review of Books Luminous and comprehensive history. Scholars for Peace in the Middle East A scholarly and judicious history of Britannia's version of that most lethal form of nonsense called antisemitism. No thoughtful person who wants to have an opinion about anything Jewish...can avoid reading this book. David Cesa rni, BBC History Magazine Excellent book. Jonathan Wright, The Tablet An elegantly written, well-researched survey of England's anti-sematic urges...masterful...poignant, insightful stuff. Jonathan Wright, The Tablet A magisterial work about the history of anti-Semitism in Britain that will surely have a major impact and be widely discussed. William Rubinstein, Standpoint 'Trials of the Diaspora' reveals him to be an historian of great ability who has produced a magisterial work. William Rubenstein, Standpoint Wonderful... immensely learned... observant and shrewd. Joanathan Sumpton, Spectator An excellent autobiographical essay in which Julius recalls the distasteful reaction to his appointment as lawyer to Diana. Jonathan Beckman, New Statesman Julius writes with unrivalled authority. James Shapiro, Financial Times This is an essential history and so it's fortunate it has been written by a man with the extraordinary fluency, staggering erudition, scholarly integrity, intellectual acumen, and moral discernment of Anthony Julius. Philip Roth Part history of an irrational hatred, part forensic analysis of a sophistical lie, part literary criticism - for, as Anthony Julius shows, anti-Semitism is a species of fantastical literature, all figure of speech, misquotation and fancy - this exhilarating work nails a defamation which to humanity's discredit, persists to this hour. Indispensible. Howard Jacobson Anthony Julius has produced a brilliant and readable account of a shameful stain on the national reputation. The best dissection I've seen of Britain's oldest and least acknowledged racial prejudice. Nick Cohen Fiercely relevant history Ihsan Taylor, New York Times Trials of the Diaspora is a well-organized and well-written book ... Anthony Julius has provided important material for future debate on both the historical and the ongoing relationship of English people to the Jews. Frank Felsenstein, Jewish Quarterly Review
