In the late Middle Ages, a harmful myth emerged, accusing Jews of desecrating the eucharistic bread, leading to widespread violence against them in Germany and Austria. This book examines the legends and pilgrimage shrines that arose from these accusations, revealing how they shaped Christian anti-Judaism prior to the Reformation. By analyzing relics, artworks, and propaganda, the author illustrates the intertwining of persecution with Christian practices, providing a deep insight into the dynamics of Christian-Jewish relations in premodern Europe.
