DESCRIPTION:The first written account of an anti-Jewish folktale is a tale
  of English or German origin\, published in 1228. From the Middle Ages to 
 the Modern Era\, these folktales helped fuel the anti-Jewish prejudice pre
 valent within and beyond Western society. By the nineteenth century\, the 
 tales assisted in paving the way for anti-Judaism to transition into antis
 emitism\; subsequently\, the Nazis were then able to capitalize on these s
 tories as objects of antisemitic propaganda. Join Dr. Sofia Lago\, Lecture
 r of English for Academic Purposes at Suzhou University\, for a discussion
  about how these counternarratives served to inflame rampant antisemitism 
 perpetuated by Hitler’s Nazi party.This webinar is free and open to ever
 yone\, but registration is required.REGISTER HERE---This event is part of
