## Resource

For centuries there were none left; The Jews had been driven out of England en-masse by Edward I... But the records tell us a different story. Henry VIII went searching for them and English literature betrays a fascination with them. From Shakespeare's controversial Shylock to dictionary & biblical definitions, the Jew continued to feature throughout.
