Horowitz relays the paradoxes of a synthetic Jewish and Russian self-consciousness in order to correct critics who have always considered Russians and Jews as polar opposites, enemies, and incompatible. In fact, the best Russian-Jewish intellectuals-Semyon Dubnov, Maxim Vinaver, Mikhail Gershenzon, and a number of Zionist writers and thinkers-were actually inspired by Russian culture and attempted to develop a sui generis Jewish creativity in three languages on Russian soil.JewsRussiaIntellectual life19th centuryRussiaIntellectual life1801-1917JewsIntellectual life305.8924047Horowitz Brianauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut.878943National Endowment for the Humanities and The Andrew W.
