The Jew in English Literature: As Author and As Subject is a comprehensive study of the representation of Jewish characters in English literature. The book examines the portrayal of Jews in works by both Jewish and non-Jewish authors, tracing the evolution of these representations from the Middle Ages to the modern era. Author Edward N. Calisch explores the various stereotypes and prejudices that have been associated with Jews in literature, as well as the ways in which Jewish authors have used literature to explore their own identities and experiences. The book also delves into the historical context of these representations, examining the impact of events such as the Holocaust and the establishment of the state of Israel on the portrayal of Jewish characters in literature. Overall, The Jew in English Literature offers a fascinating exploration of the complex and often fraught relationship between Jews and literature in English-speaking cultures.From Pre-Elizabethan To Date.
