What is Monsters and madonnas : the roots of Christian anti-Semitism about?
Contends that Christian beliefs and practices are essentially pagan in their origin. Describes how Christian doctrine contains the seeds of antisemitism and how throughout the Gospels the Jew is equated with the Devil. Traces how this image was reinforced throughout the centuries. Analyzes the development of the literary horror story - its setting, characterization, plot, etc. - and points to similarities in the Christ story. States that antisemitism is the universal recognition of the Jew as a monster figure. (From the Bibliography of the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism)
