The Protocols of the Elders of Zion — A Critical Study Edition

Read the text. Examine the evidence.

The Protocols of the Elders of Zion is one of the most notorious forgeries in modern history. This edition brings the text, its historical background and a substantial critical companion together in one volume.

Read all twenty-four sections, newly typeset from the 1920 English printing. Then follow the arguments, examine the contradictions and investigate the borrowed material through seventy-two critical notes and forty-eight study questions.

The historical text and commentary are kept separate: read the text straight through, then return to the passages you want to explore. A historical introduction, chronology and source note establish the background and explain how the edition was prepared.
