SYNOPSIS

Simon Schama explores the impact of Jews on European arts and culture in the Enlightenment era, including the illustrious careers of composers Giacomo Meyerbeer and Felix Mendelssohn. He also investigates the controversial 1894 trial of French army officer Alfred Dreyfus, which led Austro-Hungarian journalist Theodor Herzl to claim that, without a homeland of their own, the Jewish people would never be free from persecution.
