Angebot & Nachfrage. Was die Musiktheorie für die Schulpraxis tun kann by Hans Jünger

The Wandering Jew as Monster: John Blackburn’s <i>Devil Daddy</i> by Lisa Lampert-Weissig

“…In his 1796 gothic novel, <i>The Monk</i>, Matthew Lewis creates a new strand of the Wandering Jew tradition, a gothic Wandering Jew, a being transformed from wonder to horror through association with centuries of antisemitic accusations against Jews as agents of conspiracy, ritual murder, nefarious magic, and disease. This essay argues that a variation on the representation of the gothic Wandering Jew, which began with Coleridge’s <i>Rime of the Ancient Mariner</i>, further adapts the legend to make the Wanderer not a sign of redemption, but the monstrous cause of catastrophe not only for himself, but for those he encounters. …”
