Summary/Abstract: The accusations and controversies arising from the appearance of the novel For Two Thousand Years.. are numerous. Some of the most radical are accusations of anti-Semitism and repudiation of Sebastian’s own Jewish ancestry. Through How I Became a Hooligan, Mihail Sebastian responds to these accusations by emphasizing that Jewishness is presented in the novel from a metaphysical perspective, leaving aside politics and everything that politics implies.
