The So-Called `Enlightenment' (PDF)
Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr. honors the memory of Rabbi Arthur Hertzberg, who died on April 17. The Rabbi had wrestled with the issue of the role of the so-called "Eighteenth-Century Enlightenment" in the effort to free European Jewry from anti-Semitism. "I commemorate his significant role in our recent history," LaRouche writes, "by choosing to supplement his remarks on the subject . . . with a statement of my relevant knowledge of the subject of the nominally Christian strains of anti-Semitism which have had a significant, and continuing contributing role in the Nazis' and related crimes against modern Jewry."
