ESSAY ON: Emma Lazarus/American-Jewish Writer

She was, by far, the most influential Jewish American writer of the nineteenth century, but, until recently, has been largely overlooked by contemporary scholarship. Examination of Lazarus's career demonstrates the diversity of Lazarus' literary accomplishments and also the fact that controversy continues to characterize her legacy.
