Full Description
The court Jew Joseph Süß Oppenheimer - "Jud Süß" - is one of the most symbolic figures in the history of anti-Semitism. When the Duke of Württemberg Karl Alexander died unexpectedly, the authorities arrested Oppenheimer, brought him to justice and finally sentenced him to death. He was hanged in front of a large audience on 4 February 1738 at the gates of Stuttgart. Yair Mintzker investigates four contemporary reports on the trial of Oppenheimer. The multi-voiced ness gives rise to a web of contradictory narratives that critically reflects the veracity of historical representations.
