English Literature: Works by Charles Kingsley and Francis Warner,”
The Studia Philonica Annual: Studies in Hellenistic Judaism Vol.
III (Atlanta, GA: Scholars Press, 1991): 328-343.
Mendelson examines the treatment of Philo and his views in Kingsley’s historical novel Hypatia and in his series of lectures Alexandria and Her Schools delivered at Edinburgh’s Philosophical Institution in 1854. Mendelson’s analysis also extends to Kingsley’s treatment of the Jews and Judaism. Both of the latter, writes Mendelson, are dealt with in very pejorative terms, with Kingsley consistently displaying anti-Jewish rancour and bigotry.
