Abstract

This work has three parts. In the first place, the analysis of the emergence of Christian anti-Judaism in Late Antiquity. Then, the effect of such anti-Jewish discourse on the praxis of the population and that of its own enunciators. Finally, we will relate fundamental texts of the genesis of anti-Semitism, in the 19th and 20th centuries, with late ancient anti-Jewish discourse.
