 SemiteBleistein is identified as a Semite. Since Jews were always so independent of nation, having none of their own, they have been recognisable throughout much of the history of time and were never afraid to settle in new countries, often without losing their own identity and tradition. Thus Bleistein, as a Semite, has a better sense of the past than Burbank and remembers Venice's uglier, less Romantic sides. reference topics
