Galina Svetloyarovna Zelenina - historian, candidate of historical sciences, associate professor of the Russian State Humanitarian University, senior researcher at the STEPS of the RANEPA, author of the books “The Fiery Enemy of the Marranos. Life and death under the supervision of the Inquisition”, “Judaica two: Renaissance in faces”, etc. A closed community of Gentiles that lived for many centuries in fanatical Christian Europe. Greedy usurers and perfidious traitors - and sophisticated slanders and bloody pogroms awaiting them outside the walls of the quarter. What do you think, what people are we talking about now? Jews. As writers and filmmakers clearly show, only contempt, hatred and bloodshed awaited them for a thousand years. But is this really true and how much truth is in this stereotype? Galina Zelenina will tell you a completely different story of medieval Jews and their sworn Christian neighbors - a story that scientists are reconstructing. And believe me - there is something to be surprised here. In this book we will talk: * about the politics of the church and the crown, the pursuit of legality and illegal persecution of the Jews; * about everyday contacts between Christians and Jews in a medieval city; *about the Judeo-Christian controversy, the famous disputes and their consequences; * about violence, martyrdom and messianic expectations. The history of Christians and Jews contains many mysteries and myths that must be uncovered and explored. Let's begin to lift the veil of this mystery together.
