The Third Solitude: A.M. Klein's Jewish Montreal, 1910-1950
|
| Abstract |
Although united by certain common concerns during the first half of the twentieth century, Montreal's Jewish community was extremely varied politically, economically and culturally. It was united, for example, in its concern over the rise of fascism and anti-Semitism in the 1930s and of the plight of Jewish refugees; however, it also contained capitalist factory owners and socialist workers, and Zionists and anti-Zionists. The author believes that the world of Montreal Jewry of poet and novelist A.M. Klein’s era, from about 1910 to 1950, formed a kind of "third solitude" between the dominant French and English solitudes. The author concludes that by the end of this period the community came to assume a certain order and structure, adapting to, as well as contributing to, the social development of Montreal.
