Mucha was a major satirical magazine in Poland and the only one published during the whole interwar period. The aim of the study is to analyze the visual discourse about Jews emerging from cartoons using digital tools (MAXQDA). Both quantitative and qualitative methods were applied to check which elements of the picture create a specific type of stereotype. The findings suggest that the overall image of Jews is contradictory, albeit dominated by categories related to money and trade. There are also images that do not fit into the dominant antisemitic discourse.}, doi = {10.4467/24500100STJ.23.009.18226}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/studia-judaica/article/wizerunek-zydow-w-dowcipach-rysunkowych-na-lamach-muchy-1935-1939} }
