Abstract
- The article discusses a thirteenth-century English caricature sketched on the 1233 Exchequer Receipt Roll featuring a three-faced view of Jewish financier Isaac of Norwich, other Jewish companions, and demons. It considers the work as part of Medieval material culture and political context. It explores English civil culture and the habits of scribes. Other topics include Jewish–Christian relations, anti-antisemitism in the Middle Ages, and Jewish history.
