• W1501669297 abstract "Sometimes phrenologist ... would follow on with brief phrenological seance, and nothing afforded the comrades more satisfaction than be informed that their bumps showed undoubted criminal propensities.Meredith, A Girl Among the Anarchists (1903: rpt. 1993: 153)Menachem Begin, Yassir Arafat, and Nelson Mandela, all labeled as terrorists, have been rehabilitated as statesmen and awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.Scanlan, Plotting Terror (2001: 6)ADAM GILLON FOUND only Jews in Conrad's fiction (1994:41).1 There may, however, be at least nine. In Conrad's Secret Agent, the word not used. Nevertheless, the nomenclature deployed in this novel suggests that, while three Jews are explicitly revolutionary or anarchistic, they are being opposed by two other Jews whose actions bring about the death of innocent Stevie. One political function of this narrative feature deflect attention from the historical Irish threat of the 1880s threat involving Semitic immigrants. By means of the partly-ironic use of Lombroso's theories, these Jews are also (although not exclusively) associated with criminal degeneracy. In contrast probable literary source, the novel A Girl Among the Anarchists, however, Secret Agent eschews overt anti-Semitic comments.Elsewhere, Conrad's attitude Jews has an ambivalence not unusual in the period. His letters include occasional anti-Semitic phrases. Some are directed against the publishers T. Fisher Unwin (not Jewish) and William Heinemann (an Anglican of Anglo-German descent): the former being termed The Patron the latter That (CL1 406, 395). mission of the magazine Outlook is, Conrad declares, to make money for Jew (CL2 34). crucified Impenitent Thief, admired by both Conrad and Cunninghame Graham, was Jew, since he had no eye for the shent-per-shent business the other fellow spotted at once (CL2 5).2 In Inheritors, of which Conrad claimed joint authorship with Ford Madox Hueffer, Jewish journalist regarded with mixed feelings that include patronizing distaste. journalist good little man, but the hero remarks: was not yet so humble in spirit as relish being called Granger by stranger of his stamp. I tried freeze him politely. sleek little man evinces a pathos that always present in the type (105, 102). Granger notes that he frequents newspaper kiosk kept by fellow-Israelite - snuffy little old woman, bent nearly double, whose nose touched her wares as often as not, and comments: liked him the better for his solicitude for this forlorn piece of flotsam of his own (103, 104).3In Prince Roman, the dignified Jewish innkeeper Yankel a Polish patriot, and, by virtue of that patriotism, becomes one of us, so speak, like Yankiel in Mickiewicz's Pan Tadeusz.4 In Nostromo, Hirsch, though set in demeaning stereotype (mercenary, complaining, cowardly), breaks free from it when spitting defiantly in the face of his brutal and anti-Semitic captor. Razumov, the gloomy protagonist of Under Western Eyes, remarks that his own name is not Gugenheimer: am not democratic Jew (208).5 Later, he spits violently at Julius Laspara and mutters Cursed Jew! (287). narrator comments caustically that, although Laspara might have been Transylvanian, Turk, an Andalusian, this how Razumov (as Russian Gentile) expresses his hate and contempt (287). (The comment historically apt, anti-Semitism being rife in Russia.) Frank Harris called Conrad Jew. Conrad replied in letter which New Republic published in part under the title Mr. Conrad Not Jew (1918: 109). In that letter, which specified in detail his noble Polish and Catholic ancestry, Conrad diplomatically stated: Had I been an Israelite I would never have denied being member of race occupying such unique place in the religious history of mankind (CL6 216). …" @default.
