Summary | "Without Prejudice" by Israel Zangwill is a collection of essays written during the late 19th century. This work reflects the author’s views on various social, literary, and philosophical issues of his time, encapsulating a rich and whimsical examination of life and its complexities. Throughout these essays, Zangwill engages in discussions that critique societal norms, particularly focusing on gender roles, the arts, and the challenges of existence. The opening of "Without Prejudice" introduces a vivid and surreal vision experienced by the narrator, who finds himself surrounded by a vast assembly of women expressing their grievances and desires in a raucous uproar. This scene serves as a fantastical representation of societal expectations placed upon both genders. The narrator initially attempts to defend himself against their accusations, claiming his lack of power to address their demands. As the dialogue shifts from women to men, the narrator grapples with the burdens of responsibility and guilt pertaining to social injustices, leading to a deeper contemplation about humanity's shared struggles. This vivid introduction sets the tone for a series of critical reflections on modernity and the myriad issues that plague society, illustrating how Zangwill masterfully intertwines fantasy with pointed social commentary.
