Hardback. Condition: New. Explores the history of Jews and arson in AmericaFollowing the Civil War, prominent fire insurance companies in the United States issued instructions to their agents to deny Jews fire insurance policies because of their alleged proclivity to arson. In the years that followed, the stereotype of the Jewis…h arsonist spread throughout the United States, appearing in fire insurance manuals, cartoons, songs, and silent films.Jewish Firebugs presents the first detailed exploration of both the accusations and the realities of Jewish arson from the late 1800s to the early 1920s. Drawing on such diverse records as fire department reports, insurance records, newspapers, trial transcripts, and humor journals, Jeffrey Marx delves into the social forces that created and then sensationalized the caricature of the Jewish arsonist, investigating how and why Jews became the only racial/ethnic group to be targeted this way in the United States. The book critically assesses how these antisemitic representations were solidified in the American imagination-from the spread of jokes and cartoons, to vaudeville performances across the country.In addition, Marx also investigates the various factors that led to arson criminal activity in Jewish neighborhoods, the unique way that Jewish "arson gangs" were organized, and how the fire insurance companies actively supported their efforts. Jewish Firebugs illustrates the socioeconomic realities of Jewish immigrant life at the turn of the nineteenth century, and details what the Jewish arsonist trope reveals about the dynamics of antisemitism in the United States.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The turn of the nineteenth century in the United States saw the substantial influx of immigrants and a corresponding increase in anti-immigration and nativist tendencies among longer-settled Americans. Jewish immigrants were often the object of such animosity, being at once the object of adm…iration and anxiety for their perceived economic and social successes. One result was their frequent depiction in derogatory caricatures on the stage and in print. Smoothing the Jew investigates how Jewish artists of the time attempted to smooth over these demeaning portrayals by focusing on the first Jewish comic strip published in English, Harry Hershfields Abie the Agent. Jeffrey Marx demonstrates how Hershfield created a Jewish protagonist who in part reassured nativists of the Jews ability to assimilate into American society while also encouraging immigrants and their children that, over time, they would be able to adopt American customs without losing their distinctly Jewish identity. Both the object of admiration and anxiety, Jewish immigrants to the United States at the turn of the nineteenth century were often depicted in derogatory caricatures. Smoothing the Jew investigates how Jewish artists of the time attempted to "smooth over" these demeaning images, focusing on the first Jewish comic strip published in English, Harry Hershfield's Abie the Agent.
