Hardback. This book argues that the representation of Jews in European literature has little to do with actual, human Jews, but rather is derived from the conception of Jews as Christianity's paradigmatic Other, eternally reenacting their morally ambiguous New Testament role as the Christ-bearing and -killing chosen people of God.
