The second book of the multi -volume publication "History of the Jews" - "Awareness of the House" - covers the period from 1492 to the end of the 19th century. Simon Shama continues his magnificent romance romance about the endless survival of the people in societies that did not allow the complete integration of the Jews, about deception and hatred, about destructive pogroms and exile, about forever broken hopes and that wherever the Jews may find themselves and, as it were, many Neither worked, everything could easily be lost overnight. It was starting with the Algambra Edict that the vector of Jewish history was aimed at finding a place where the Jewish people who are aware of a single nation could live freely and profess their religion without oppression. Remaining true to himself, the author shows a collective story through the fate of individuals as famous (whether it be the philosopher Spinoza, or the composer Meyerber, or the Great Magid, or the prisoner of the devil of the island of Dreyfus), and the little -known large history. Passing through the revolution of the New Age, through changes in the political map of the world, through economic and social modernization, leading his narrative close to the exacerbation of anti -Semitism and to the formation of the Zionist movement, Simon Sham stops on the verge of the 20th century, saturated with how terrible, so significant events in the life of a Jewish people.
