A History of Anti-Semitism examines the history, culture and
literature of antisemitism from antiquity to the present. With
contributions from an international team of scholars, whose essays
were specially commissioned for this volume, it covers the long
history of antisemitism starting with ancient Greece and Egypt,
through the anti-Judaism of early Christianity, and the medieval
era in both the Christian and Muslim worlds when Jews were defined
as 'outsiders,' especially in Christian Europe. This portrayal
often led to violence, notably pogroms that often accompanied
Crusades, as well as to libels against Jews. The volume also
explores the roles of Luther and the Reformation, the
Enlightenment, the debate over Jewish emancipation, Marxism, and
the social disruptions after World War 1 that led to the rise of
Nazism and genocide. Finally, it considers current issues,
including the dissemination of hate on social media and the
internet and questions of definition and method.
