Jews in the Early Modern English Imagination (eBook, PDF)

A Scattered Nation

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Jews in the Early Modern English Imagination explores how for English travellers, the Jew of the imagination contrasted with the Jew they actually encountered in southern Europe, North Africa and the Levant. Based on travel writings, religious history and popular literature, this cultural historical study sheds new light not only on English representations of Jews during the period, but more generally on constructions of early modern religious and ethnic identities.
