I read almost the same sentence last week: "Ratisbonne joined a wave of apostasy in the French Jewish community triggered by a sense that the Jews could not achieve full integration in French society as long as they remained Jews. Ratisbonne reached the conclusion that there was a fundamental incompatibility between Judaism and French citizenship". But I was reading it about Vienna in the 1890s!Helshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1014444390969839620.post-37075840972470845792011-12-03T21:21:01.236+02:002011-12-03T21:21:01.236+02:00These posts are worth to be published as a book.
