Mary Elizabeth Braddon's Belgravia, a London Magazine, and the World of Anglo-Jewry, Jews and Judaism, 1866 - 1899

By Ruth Morris

This work has grown out of a previous study entitled Mary Elizabeth Braddon and the Jewish Question: A Victorian English Novelist and the Worlds of Anglo-Jewry, Zionism and Judaism, 1859-1913, which focused solely upon Braddon's novels and used them as a lens through which the changes in the Anglo-Jewish community throughout her lifetime could be charted within her work. Although the study examines over seventy of her novels, any understanding of 'the Jewish Question' in relation to Braddon is incomplete without also considering the portrayal of Jewish people and Jewish customs within her periodical, Belgravia: A London Magazine (1866-1899). References to Jews, Judaism or Jewish life in general span the entire time period of the magazine.
