Apologies for crosspostings to two lists, neither
of which is a renassiance one, but I know there are plenty of you out there who
stray into the fifteenth century and beyond.
A student wants to do her MA dissertation on the
way Jews are portrayed in Renaissance Art and has asked me for suggestions on
what to read. I've come up with Ruth Mellinkoff, Sara Lipton. Dana Katz,
an article by Diane Owen Hughes on Jews and Earrings, the location of which I
can't remember, and a few other equally vague ideas on topics to search through
(Judas, depictions of the Circumcision and Purfication, Renaissance Haggadahs
and other MSS). Clearly, she needs more help than I can give her!
Any suggestions?
