Item description from seller

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Benjamin De Israeli: Who Is This Uncircumcised Philistine is a book written by Oedipus and David, first published in 1881. The book is a fictionalized account of the life of Benjamin De Israeli, a Jewish philosopher who lived in the 17th century. The story is told from the perspective of De Israeli himself, and follows his journey from his early years in Spain to his travels throughout Europe, where he meets and interacts with many influential thinkers of his time.The title of the book is taken from the biblical story of David and Goliath, where David refers to the giant Goliath as an ''uncircumcised Philistine.'' The reference is used to highlight the idea that De Israeli, as a Jew, was often seen as an outsider or an ''other'' in the societies he inhabited.Throughout the book, De Israeli grapples with questions of identity, religion, and philosophy. He engages in debates with other scholars and thinkers, including the famous philosopher Baruch Spinoza, and ultimately develops his own unique perspective on the world.The book is notable for its vivid descriptions of 17th century Europe, as well as its exploration of themes that are still relevant today, such as the nature of identity and the role of religion in society. Overall, Benjamin De Israeli: Who Is This Uncircumcised Philistine is a thought-provoking and engaging work of historical fiction.This Book Is In English.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
