“At the limit of tolerability”: On the history of criticism of anti-Semitism in the feuilleton of ›Pester Lloyd‹ 1933–1944. When Siegfried Brachfeld’s dissertation on the last decade of the most influential Germanlanguage newspaper in Hungary appeared in 1971, a turning point in the cultural and scientific debate about anti-Semitism became apparent. A contemporary contextualisation of the only academic work by the popular entertainer constitutes the starting point for an inspection of the reception of literary antisemitism in Hungarian fiction with the help of random samples from ›Pester Lloyd‹.
