Jews and Dogs

Apparently Marshal Tukhachevskiy once said "The Jew is a dog, son of a dog,
who sows his fleas in every land" (quoted in General J.F.C. Fuller, The
Decisive Battles of the Western World", the chapter dealing with Warsaw
1920, from memory, I mislaid my copy years ago).

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
