The spurious character of the
Protocols was first revealed in 1921 by Philip Graves of
The Times (London), who demonstrated their obvious resemblance to a
satire on
Napoleon III by the French lawyer Maurice Joly, published in 1864 and entitled
Dialogue aux enfers entre Machiavel et Montesquieu (“Dialogue in Hell Between Machiavelli and Montesquieu”). Subsequent investigation, particularly by the Russian historian Vladimir Burtsev, revealed that the
Protocols were
forgeries compounded by officials of the Russian
secret police out of the satire of Joly, a fantastic novel (
Biarritz) by Hermann Goedsche (1868), and other sources.
