Apart from the Jews, no salvation Veuillot, Bloy, Bernanos

The formidable disruptiveness and novelty of Le Salut par les Juifs is best understood if this text is placed back in the long history of nineteenth- and twentieth-century European Catholic Judeophobia. This is the aim of this article, which compares Bloy’s remarks on Veuillot’s reactions toward the Mortara Affair and all of theological anti-Talmudism, to the founding of La Libre Parole, citing the repercussion it had on the contemplation of Bernanos in his later life, when he wrote Dans l’amitié de Léon Bloy.
