JEWISH RITUAL MURDER


BIBLIOGRAPHY
OF WORKS SUPPORTING
THE BLOOD ACCUSATION

Acta Sanctorum. This is the work of the Bollandists, who were a band of Jesuits devoting themselves to historical record between 1643 and 1883. The volumes in which they recorded various ritual murders by Jews are mainly those written in the seventeenth century.

References to other authorities in particular cases of Ritual Murder are made in the text when describing these cases.


To the above list should be added a recent work intended to clear the Jews from the Blood Accusation, but which, at least in my own opinion, appears to support it: -- The Ritual Murder Libel and the Jews, by C. Roth (Woburn Press, 1935)
