The Image of the Jew in “Mohorjana” in the Second Half of the 19th Century
Keywords:
anti-Semitism, St. Mohor Society, 19th centuryAbstract
Although Jews had been driven out of the main Slovene provinces – Carinthia, Carniola and Styria – in the 15th and at the beginning of the 16th century, anti-Semitism spread rapidly among Slovenes in the second half of the 19th century. Anti-Semitic sentiment in Slovenia developed under the strong influence of Viennese anti-Semitism. Anti-Semitic ideas were spread by the daily press and other publications. These included publications by the Družba sv. Mohorja (St. Mohor Society) publishing house, whose portrayal of the Jews in Slovenia in the second half of the 19th century was mostly negative.
