About the lecture series
Anti-Semitic ways of speaking have had an impact in various discourses from the Middle Ages to the present day. The lecture series "Constructions of anti-Semitism in fictional and factual (con)texts" aims to shed light on various constructions and practices of anti-Semitism and thus also make a critical contribution to current social developments.
