Genius and Anxiety: How Jews Changed the World, 1847-1947 by Norman Lebrecht

Genius and Anxiety: How Jews Changed the World, 1847-1947 by Norman Lebrecht

Marx, Freud, Einstein, Mahler, Kafka, Rosalind Franklin. Norman Lebrecht asks what it was about one hundred years and one small population that produced so much of the modern world.

Moving year by year from 1847 to 1947, he links the achievements to the anxiety underneath them — emancipation, assimilation, exclusion, and finally catastrophe — refusing both self-congratulation and easy explanation.

Ambitious and briskly written cultural history, full of people you half-know and stories you do not.
