Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Based on methods of Gender Studies, Cultural Studies and research on resilience, and by analysing sources like tractates, sermons, expulsion documents and Passion plays
the seminary will present basic anti-Jewish Topoi. In contrast, Hebrew sources (in translation), pictures and material objects will give insight to religion and culture as strategies of Jewish self-assertion. Geographically it will cover the cultural space ,Ashkenaz’, the German speaking parts of the Holy Roman Empire with Jewish population.
The learning units will consist of an introduction and the joint reading of the texts prepared (put on moodle in advance), in the concluding presentation units, the papers of the participants will be given and discussed.
