Blood Inscriptions: Science, Modernity, and Ritual Murder at Europe's Fin de Siecle - Jewish Culture and Contexts
Hillel J. Kieval
Although the Enlightenment had seemed to bring an end to the belief that Jews murdered Christian children for ritual purposes, charges of the so-called blood libel continued on either side of the turn to the twentieth century. Hillel J. Kieval examines four cases to consider how discredited beliefs became plausible to educated European elites.
