German antisemitism in the late nineteenth century had its own special character, which can be explained as ‘antisemitic peripheries’ or provincial antisemitism. The starting-point of this argument is the complexity of nine-teenth-century German society and this article examines the place of antisemitism in a uniquely German phenomenon: the mass of cultural, social and political divisions which existed in German society in the second half of the nineteenth century. This can undoubtedly serve as a background to nazi antisemitism, but does not explain it fully
