In Bocquet’s book, thanks to his skilful structuring of arguments, it was possible to include a plethora of rhetorical and argumentative tricks. I would like to stress the expression "skilful structuring of arguments" – it is exactly that clear and simple structure, rather than the legitimacy of the argumentation, that gives the impression of correctness and, in consequence, of truthfulness. The arguments most often used by Bocquet are those associated with populist statements and demagoguery – arguments appealing to universal agreement, passion and prejudice, and to financial profits. We more rarely see arguments appealing to authority or sympathy. As for sympathy, it matches neither the strong, rational posture that Bocquet wants to build in the reader, nor the intentional objectifying of Jews which he consistently hammers home. In From the Red Sea Toward the Ghettos of Europe, the 20th century situation is explained through the contents of the Old Testament, political connections and revolutionary coups through “conspiracy theories”, and art – through a theory of race, among other things. Bocquet’s writing exemplifies typical 20th century Nazi propaganda, and his book reveals the dark and unwillingly discussed anti-Semitic motifs of Polish and European tradition. The book is directed at readers who – contrary to ideas promoted today – did not have an unambiguous and open attitude towards the Jews. The pre-war Polish culture adopted a lot of beliefs about the Jews which in our times can seem surprising, but which were simply a part of the world and everyday life in the 20th century. Ignorance and fear of the unknown constituted a fertile ground for Bocquet’s claims, on which more fruits of Nazi propaganda could ripen.
