The articles in this text use anti-Jewish disputational literature
to shed light on the rise of anti-Judaism in the West. Christian
theologians in the 11th century were particularly interested to
work out the relationship between Christianity and Judaism because
they were in the process of clarifying their own doctrines under
the influence of classical material which had not been fully
utilized since late Antiquity. In this context a response to the
continued and vociferous Jewish rejection of Christianity seemed
all the more urgent. It is not for nothing that the output of
anti-Jewish rejection polemics rose sharply towards the end of the
11th-century and simultaneously became more and more sophisticated.
Many of the anti-Jewish ideas of later centuries go back to what
was formulated in the 11th and 12th centuries.
