Joskowicz points to an equally powerful aspect of modern Jewish history: the extent to which German and French Jews sought to become modern by criticising the anti-modern positions of the Catholic Church. From the moment in which Jews began to enter the fray of modern European politics, they found that Catholicism served as a convenient foil that helped them define what it meant to be a good citizen, to practice a respectable religion, and to have a healthy family life.Stanford studies in Jewish history and culture.Anti-CatholicismGermanyHistory19th centuryAnti-CatholicismFranceHistory19th centuryAnti-clericalismGermanyHistory19th centuryAnti-clericalismFranceHistory19th centuryJewsGermanyPolitics and government19th centuryJewsFrancePolitics and government19th centuryAnti-CatholicismHistoryAnti-CatholicismHistoryAnti-clericalismHistoryAnti-clericalismHistoryJewsPolitics and governmentJewsPolitics and government305.892/404Joskowicz Ari1469725MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910789448303321The modernity of others3681283UNINA
