Thesis (M.A.)--Long Island University, The Brooklyn Center, 2019.

Includes bibliographical references

This thesis examines the historical, religious, and political underpinnings of anti-Semitism in literature and its endurance within the literary canon. The primary focus is a comparison of Charles Dickens' overt anti-Semitism in Oliver Twist and his apologist rendering of Jewishness in Our Mutual Friend. This thesis presents an analysis of great works of literature, before and after Dickens writes, to contextualize and qualify the perpetuation of anti-Semitic writing and understand its status. While early literature focuses on establishing a clear and present scapegoat for society's ills, the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries see a shift in literary perspective to a more human, but still distinctly "other" construction of the Jewish person. The concerns of contemporaneous society contextualize the works discussed and offer literature as historical record. This record should also serve as a warning for our time where anti-Semitism and other forms of bias are once again on the rise.
