| Summary: | The twelve essays in this volume are products of an international workshop on antisemitism and Christianity sponsored by the Center for Advanced Holocaust Studies at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. Conference volumes can sometimes be a mixed bag in which the whole proves less than the sum of its uneven parts. Happily, that is not the case here. The book displays the sort of thematic and methodological diversity one might expect from a project designed to foster dialogue across disciplinary lines by historians and theologians. Yet each contribution builds either explicitly or implicitly on the shared working assumption that conventional distinctions between (religious) anti-Judaism and (racialist) antisemitism may conceal as much as they reveal. |
