Publisher's Synopsis
The book ""The Jew And The German; Or From Paul To Luther: A Historical Study"" by Kelford Franke is a comprehensive exploration of the relationship between Jews and Germans, from the time of Paul to the Reformation led by Martin Luther. The book provides a detailed historical analysis of the complex and often tumultuous relationship between these two groups, examining the religious, cultural, and political factors that have shaped their interactions over the centuries. The author begins by exploring the origins of Christianity and its relationship with Judaism, including the role of Paul in shaping the early Christian church. The book then moves on to examine the medieval period, during which Jews were often persecuted and marginalized by the Christian majority. The author also explores the rise of the Reformation and the impact it had on the relationship between Jews and Germans, particularly in the context of Luther's anti-Semitic writings and the subsequent persecution of Jews in Germany.Throughout the book, the author provides a nuanced and detailed analysis of the complex factors that have shaped the relationship between Jews and Germans over the centuries, including religious beliefs, cultural attitudes, and political power dynamics. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Judaism, Christianity, and the complex relationship between these two faiths.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
