Hi! I’m wondering if anyone has any good resources on the origin and history of the term “antisemitism”. I remember reading a while back that the term “Antisemitismus” was coined during the German Enlightenment as a more palatable- and, well, “enlightened” – alternative to the more prevalent “Judenhass/Jew-hatred”, as it sounded more “scientific” and “neutral” in the burgeoning context of German nationalism and race sciences. I can’t remember where exactly I read this, though, and I’m curious if anyone could refer me to any academic resources on the topic. Thanks!
