Peretz's Article Did Not Impute Anti-Semitism

By Henry LOUIS Gates jr.

I read Martin Peretz's article on The Semitic Museum very carefully in The Harvard Crimson of November 29. I also read a response by Leon Levy on December 10 and Professor Frank Moore Cross on December 13 in which they write that Peretz imputed anti-Semitism to Professor Lawrence E. Stager. There is nothing in Peretz's text to justify this claim. Indeed, doing so, it seems to me, only adds confusion to an already confusing, and extraordinarily difficult, situation. W.E.B.
