Join here: [   / @fadinglore  ] In the heart of 16th-century Prague, a revered rabbi creates a monster from clay to protect his people from annihilation. It is one of the most famous and powerful legends in the world. But what if the story you know isn't true? What if this ancient legend is actually a modern invention, a myth created to fool history itself? This feature-length documentary unmasks the Golem of Prague. We begin by telling the thrilling legend in its full, dramatic detail. Then, we pivot to a historical investigation, unraveling a 200-year-old secret by following a paper trail of clues that leads to a brilliant literary hoax at the turn of the 20th century. Finally, we explore the real reason the legend was forged: a deep dive into the turmoil of the 19th century, an era when the Jewish community of Prague, facing a profound crisis of identity, reached back in time to create the powerful, unapologetically Jewish hero they desperately needed. This is not just the story of a monster; it's the story of how and why a myth is made. #Golem #Mythology #Folklore
