520 | |a Judah P. Benjamin (1811-1884) was a United States Senator from Louisiana, the first Jewish member of the Senate, and, later, the Attorney General of the Confederacy. In the latter stages of the Civil War he was Jefferson Davis's closest confidante. In this new biography, author James Traub grapples with the difficult truth that Benjamin, who was considered one of the greatest legal minds in the United States, was a slave-owner who defended slave-owners. Recognizing Exodus as the primal narrative of the Jews, who were once slaves in Egypt, how could a man as gifted as Benjamin not see that he was complicit with evil? This biography is unique in its serious moral argument: What are we to say of a man not only brilliant but brave who nevertheless devoted his greatest gifts to advancing the slave cause? How could a man who understood so much have questioned so little? | ||
