Alongside… Postscripta of Le Salut par les Juifs

This study deals with an anecdote announcing the conversion of Israel at the end of Le Pèlerin de l’Absolu. It confronts us with a paradox: How can Bloy’s philo-Semitism coexist with the necessary conversion of Israel, knowing that this will to convert and the resistance of the Jewish people are one of the causes of medieval anti-Semitism and its modern avatars? Hence, we offer an examination of what Bloy means by converting and being converted.
