In Lothair, Disraeli delves into the life of a young and wealthy aristocrat navigating the political and religious complexities of 19th-century Britain. The novel explores themes of identity, faith, and duty as Lothair is torn between the influences of Catholicism, Protestantism, and secularism. With its satirical portrayal of high society and rich political commentary, Lothair reflects Disraeli's own views on the tensions of his era. Benjamin Disraeli, 1st Earl of Beaconsfield, (1804-1881) was a parliamentarian, Conservative statesman and literary figure, twice serving as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Before and during his political career, Disraeli was well known as a literary and social figure, best known today for his romances, Sybil and Vivian Grey. Lothair was written after Disraeli's first term as Prime Minister, and deals with the comparative merits of the Catholic and Anglican churches as heirs of Judaism, and with the then-topical question of Italian unification. Lothair was a hugely popular work among 19th century readers.

Autorenporträt
Benjamin Disraeli was a British statesman and Conservative politician who was born on December 21, 1804, and died on April 19, 1881. He was Prime Minister of the United Kingdom twice. He was one of the most important people in making the modern Conservative Party, helping to set its policies and define its wide reach. People remember Disraeli for his strong voice in world affairs, his political fights with William Ewart Gladstone, the leader of the Liberal Party, and his one-nation conservatism, also called "Tory democracy." He made the Conservatives the party that most people thought of when they heard the words "British Empire" and "military action to grow it," which were both things that British voters liked. Disraeli began writing novels in 1826, and his last one, Endymion, came out just before he died at the age of 76. Over the course of his life, Disraeli's writing and politics influenced each other. This made him "one of the most prominent figures in Victorian public life" and led to a lot of commentaries. Disraeli thought about running for office after he became a Christian. Since Sampson Gideon in 1770, when he was elected as an MP, there have been Jewish MPs.
