Shadows Fall - Nurture

What allows us to conclude that Wagner is a plagiarist in his anti-Semitic statements? After all, the work of Marx has a vivid political, social and religious (or rather, atheistic) character, and Wagner addresses mainly the categories of art. In order not to be unfounded, we will give a parallel comparison of some key passages from both works, and may readers forgive us forcible copious quotes. We are simply interested in having them draw their own conclusions, relying not on someone else's judgment, but solely on the primary sources. Moreover, the article of Marx is the quintessence of what other German authors wrote then on this subject. Reading both articles in its entirety, it is impossible not to notice that Marx’s work is logically verified, and Wagner sins with contradictions, for examplefirst declares the absence of Jewish professional music due to the lack of Jewish folklore, then calls the German composer of Jewish descent Mendelssohn and the French composer of Jewish descent Meyerbeer Jewish composers, etc. In other words, Marx wrote as a professional, and Wagner as an amateur.
