The current revival of antisemitism in Europe and the
demonization of Jews in parts of the Muslim world give special
importance to the exposure of the myths and lies that for centuries
led people to regard Jews as the dangerous "other" and that led to
violence and persecution. This provocative anthology presents 90
documents that focus on the nature, evolution, and meaning of the
principal myths that have made antisemitism such a lethal force in
history: Jews as deicides, ritual murderers, agents of Satan,
international conspirators, and conniving, unscrupulous Shylocks.
Also included are documents illustrating the recent revival of
classical myths about Jews among black nationalists, Holocaust
deniers, and Islamic fundamentalists.
