Images of Malice: Visual Representations of Anti-Judaism and Antisemitism in the Bohemian Lands

Images of Malice: Visual Representations of Anti-Judaism and Antisemitism in the Bohemian Lands

Gwendolyn Albert
0/5 ( ratings)
Traces the history of visual representations of anti-Jewish hatred in Czech Bohemia.
 
The vicious scourges of religion-based anti-Judaism and ethnically-rooted anti-Semitism are tragically deep-seated aspects of Czech Bohemian history. Images of Malice—copublished with Artefactum—examines visual instances from the well-known low points of historic Bohemian anti-Semitic resentment, while also recasting common views of eras not typically associated with rises in virulent anti-Jewish sentiment. This mapping of the visual signs of anti-Judaism and anti-Semitism is also an account of their broader meaning, as the processes of stereotyping, delegitimization, dehumanization, and exclusion from society represent a more dire and universal problem. As Images of Malice makes bracingly clear, the danger of anti-Jewish visuals is still an urgent problem today, in Europe and beyond.
