Description
Summary:The common distinction between the concepts of "Anti-Judaism" and "Antisemitism" has recently been challenged by medievalists. The present study investigates how the concepts are related, taking its starting point from the widespread association of "Jews" with "money". Based on two case studies - the Liber floridus of Lambert of Saint-Omer ( c .1121) and the Viennese scholars Henry of Langenstein and Henry Totting of Oyta (both d. 1397) - it argues that the patristic distinction between Jewish "carnality" and Christian "spirituality" provided the binary code used to distinguish between good and bad in the economic world.
