Chazan analyses how during the second half of the Middle Ages, damning imagery of Jews and Judaism proliferated, with a subsequent impact on broader Christian thinking about the trajectory of Jewish history. Portrayals of the Jewish past and future offered by major intellectual leaders, once ambiguous, became increasingly negative.
