This comprehensive volume, assembled by an esteemed international team of scholars, features specially commissioned essays that shed light on the enduring legacy of antisemitism. Spanning a vast expanse of time, the book traces the origins of antisemitism in ancient Greece and Egypt, traversing the anti-Judaism of early Christianity and the medieval era, particularly in Christian Europe, where Jews were often portrayed as outsiders. This portrayal frequently resulted in violent episodes, including pogroms often accompanying Crusades, as well as malicious libels against Jews. Moreover, the volume delves into the profound impact of key historical events such as the Reformation, the Enlightenment, the struggle for Jewish emancipation, Marxism, and the social upheavals following World War I, which ultimately paved the way for the rise of Nazism and the tragic atrocities of genocide. Finally, it addresses contemporary challenges, including the proliferation of hate on social media and the internet, as well as the critical questions of defining and methodologies employed in studying antisemitism. This profound exploration of a complex and distressing topic offers valuable insights into the ongoing struggle against prejudice and discrimination.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 990g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 x 30 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781108494403\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44094853808378,"sku":"9781108494403","price":89.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1654862908158_book.jpg?v=1655207879","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-cambridge-companion-to-antisemitism-9781108494403","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
