These stereotypes in turn generated long-lasting habits of dealing with Jews and Jewish themes in Russian culture and politics. This volume introduces a formidable corpus of previously neglected evidence into the scholarship, namely, journalism and second- and third-rank prose. Journalism, influenced by more humane Western attitudes, reflected changes and presented a more objective picture of the Jews. It was the romantic prose, full of mythology and appealing to dark instincts that created the most odious anti-semitic clichés.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47891085197463,"sku":"9789004235014","price":23625.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789004235014.webp?v=1781182320","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-veil-of-moses-jewish-themes-in-russian-literature-of-the-romantic-era-9789004235014","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
