Though typically associated more with Judaism than Christianity, the status and sacrality of Hebrew has nonetheless been engaged by both religious cultures in often strikingly similar ways. The language has furthermore played an important, if vexed, role in relations between the two. Hebrew between Jews and Christians closely examines this frequently overlooked aspect of Judaism and Christianity's common heritage and mutual competition. Jewish Studies; Jewish-Christian relations; Christian Hebraism; Christian Theology

A Study of Othering in Medieval Denmark and Sweden
This book explores the portrayal of Jews and Judaism in medieval Danish and Swedish literary and visual culture. Drawing on over 100 manuscripts and incunabula as well as runic inscriptions and religious art, the author describes the various, often contradictory, images ranging from antisemitism and antiJudaism to the elevation of Jews as morally exemplary figures. It includes new editions of 54 East Norse texts with English translations. Middle Ages; Sweden; Denmark; antisemitism; Christian literature; vernacular literature
