Summary/Abstract: The study focuses on the anti-Jewish caricatures published in the newspaper Porunca vremii (Commandment of the Times), aiming to recuperate the religious portrait ascribed to the Jew. How are Jewishness and Judaism framed in these caricatures? What do the caricatures tell us about the anti-Jewish stereotypes shared by the public? What are the consequences of this stereotypical thinking?
