FOOTNOTES

[1] The threat of pogroms has by no means disappeared under the Bolsheviks. See Luc Durtain’s “L’Autre Europe” for details.

[2] His mother’s name was Rachel Levine. His father is unknown. Mrs. Levine might have been a Christian married in a Jewish family but the name of Rachel is not common among Christians.

[3] This statement may perhaps be questioned by some Catholics. Apparently, Catholics are not allowed to undertake missionary activity in Russia. But the church cult has not been suppressed.

[4] This same image was recently removed by the Bolsheviks, apparently without any opposition whatever. Such are the paradoxes of Russian history.

[5] A notable exception is the sermon in Melville’s “Moby Dick.”

[7] It has been estimated that during the fifty years between 1870 and 1910, America added to her previous population of forty million, twenty-five million foreign settlers.
