Maurice Samuel was a British-American writer, cultural critic, and lecturer. He was born on February 8, 1895, in Poland and died on May 4, 1972, in New York City. He grew up in the Jewish orthodox community and later became a cultural and religious critic of Judaism.
His book "You Gentiles" (1924) was widely read and debated in its time. The book explored the relationships between Jews and non-Jews, and how the gentile world perceived Jews. Samuel argued that the difference between Jews and gentiles was not in their physical appearance but their morality and spirituality.
Samuel was a prolific writer and wrote more than 30 books in his lifetime. In addition to his literary works, he was an editor and contributor to various magazines and newspapers. He also worked as a lecturer on Jewish culture and history.
Samuel's views on Judaism were controversial, and he received criticism from Jewish organizations and leaders. However, he remained a significant figure in the Jewish community and played a role in shaping the discourse around Jewish identity and the place of Jews in society.
