Jews and Dogs

[Rouhier-Willoughby, Jeanmarie]

Dear Dorothy--I would suggest Olga Belova's work on folklore related to ethnic stereotypes in the Russian context. She may have some valuable background for a study of this kind.

Best, Jeanmarie

No, please reply to the whole list (or at least to me too).  I am very interested in this topic and narrative conceptualizations of animals in general.

Thanks-

Dorothy

Subject: [SEELANGS] Jews and Dogs

Dear Colleagues,
A student working on Hebrew, Yiddish, and German literatures is starting a dissertation on how narratives juxtapose Jews and dogs (and sometimes other animals).  Sometimes Jews are identified with dogs, and sometimes they are seen as opposing forces.  Can you think of Russian texts that I should recommend to him?  Probably best to reply off list.
take care
Gabriella
