The Medieval Archive of Antisemitism in 19th Century Sweden

The significance of religion for the development of modern racist antisemitism is a much debated topic in the study of Jewish-Christian relations. Cordelia Heß's "The Medieval Archive of Antisemitism in 19th Century Sweden" (DeGruyter, 2021), the first study on antisemitism in nineteenth-century Sweden, provides new insights into the debate from the specific case of a country in which religious homogeneity was the considered ideal long into the modern era.
