This is a comprehensive critical study of the nineteenth-century French grand opéra La Juive, by Halévy. Hallman explores the politically charged messages of the opera within the context of French social history and addresses the opera's portrayal of religious intolerance and antisemitic attitudes towards Jews in French society.
