The World of Emma Lazarus is a biographical book written by H. E. Jacob that explores the life and legacy of the American poet and writer, Emma Lazarus. The book delves into her family background, her upbringing in New York City, and her literary career, which was marked by her advocacy for Jewish refugees and her contributions to the Statue of Liberty. The author provides a detailed account of Lazarus' personal life, including her relationships with family and friends, and her struggles with health issues. The book also examines the social and political context of the late 19th century, particularly the rise of anti-Semitism and the immigration debates that shaped Lazarus' work. Through extensive research and analysis, Jacob presents a comprehensive portrait of Lazarus as a complex and multifaceted figure, whose poetry and activism continue to resonate with readers today. The World of Emma Lazarus is a compelling and insightful read for anyone interested in American history, Jewish culture, or the life and work of a remarkable woman.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
