Summary:An in-depth study of Parisian Jewish elites from the end of the nineteenth century to the outbreak of the Second World War. Economic position, marital behavior, cultural practices and sociability: themes that illustrate the assimilation of a minority that fervently espoused the republican universalism demonstrated by the Third Republic. The history of their ascent, with its strong mark on the national landscape, was violently interrupted by the occupation of France by Nazi Germany and the anti-Semitic policy of the Vichy government.
