Focusing on the historical context of anti-Jewish libels, the book delves into the legacies of persecution in Trent, Italy, and Sandomierz, Poland, both of which lack a current Jewish population. The author examines how extensive local archives can be utilized to reclaim interrupted Jewish lives by interpreting the narratives embedded in these hostile records. Through a critical approach of reading against the grain, the work highlights the impact of these libels on the towns' histories and the Jewish community's memory.
