In 1932, the outstanding German writer Lyon Feuchtwanger published the novel "The Jewish War", followed in 1935 by the novel "Sons", in 1945 - "The Day Will Come". Together they formed a trilogy dedicated to the life of the Roman historian and military leader of Jewish origin Josephus Flavius. Joseph ben Mattathias, a priest of the first row of the Jerusalem temple, patriot and participant of the Jewish revolt, is faced with a painful choice: to accept captivity or to accept death, to go to the side of the Romans and betray the faith of his fathers or to perish. However, the future creator of the historical treatise "The Jewish War" chooses his own path, on which he is eternally alone: living in Rome and enjoying the patronage of the Flavians, he becomes the most devoted preacher of the unique role of the Jewish people in the history of mankind... In the work of Feuchtwanger - a German of Jewish origin, forced to leave Germany with the rise to power of the Nazis, the themes of exile from his native country and the place of the Jewish people in the world acquire a special, deeply personal sound.
