Summary "This new Seminar Study attempts to cover a complex and controversial topic - the hatred of Jews over the past three thousand years. How can we best understand anti-Semitism? Albert Lindemann suggests that there is a middle ground between blaming the Jews and blaming the non-Jews. He argues that the relationship of Jews and non-Jews is best understood as an interplay of fantasy and reality; both groups have cultivated fantasies about the other that tend to reflect as well as enhance or exaggerate real conflicts in the social and economic realms."--Jacket
