Museum Meermanno – Offensive books? – The Youthful Martyr of Prague

Christian Jewish conversion book. The theme is usually the same, a young Jewish boy or girl comes into contact with the New Testament, wants to become christian, but that is of course not appreciated by the usually bigoted Jewish parents.

The museum Meermanno (Museum of the Book) organised a exhibition of books that are now taboo. Main themes: depiction of black people, books that seek to convert people to christianity, especially Jews and people in the colonies, nazi books, stereotypical gender roles. More info:
