Abstract

The article presents a detailed discussion of the contents of the book "Trilby," by George Du Maurier. It tells of social and aesthetic revelations and the Jews' patronage of art. It states that the book is regarded as one of the most financially successful and popular novels of its day. It elaborates that the book hesitates between elitism and egalitarianism, enthusiasm and horror of the marketplace in general and the merchandising of talents in particular, and also between popularization and vulgarization.
