Another multi generation series is by Howard Fast, starting with The Immigrants, Amazon link to the 6 book series
I haven’t read them personally but have heard good reviews.
Lawrence Sanders maybe? He does the pulp fiction crime thing really well. Also, Howard Fast if you like modern historical novels. He did a truly awesome series of books set in San Francisco in the early to mid 20th century, now referred to as the Lavette Family Saga, starting with the family patriarch and his partner on the day of the 1906 SF earthquake. I recently reread the full series after about 30 years and it was ust as good as I remembered!
Beneath a Scarlet Sky by Mark T. Sullivan is based on a true story of an Italian man living with and thwarting Nazi's. A gripping read, highly recommended. https://www.amazon.com/Beneath-Scarlet-Sky-Mark-Sullivan-ebook/dp/B01L1CEZ6K
I just released my debut novel, WINTER'S CHILD, on Amazon and Kindle. It's so exciting! You can find more information on my website.
---------------------------------
Set against the colorful backdrop of 15th century Florence, WINTER'S CHILD tells the stunning tale of Amadora Trovatelli, a workshop apprentice who, after miraculously escaping from a horrific fire, swears to kill the nobleman who took everything from her.
With nothing but her harp, Amadora dives headfirst into the charged political landscape of Florence. Caught with the Medici on one side, the Salviati on the other, and the constant reminder that higher powers are in control of her destiny, she uses her mastery of music to maneuver ever closer to her goal. Meanwhile, she must escape notice of the inquisition, who have named her a witch for surviving the fire she can’t remember escaping.
And all the while, she’s carrying the child of the man she has sworn to kill.
WINTER’S CHILD is an evocative new style of historical-fiction, brimming with rich language, emotional turns, and a view of the Italian Renaissance you won’t soon forget.
Sins of the Son by Frank Lucianus at the following link below has all of the elements in it you mentioned. I just finished the audiobook as well. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07HZ1ZL26/
If you're looking for historical fiction, you should check out the Grail Quest series by Bernard Cornwell They feature two very big battles of the conflict: Poitiers and Crecy. He also has a book called "Agincourt" that deals with, well, the Battle of Agincourt. Cornwell's battles are always well researched.
Emperor: The Gates of Rome: A Novel of Julius Caesar (Emperor Series Book 1 by Conn Iggulden). This series chronicles Julius Caesar's life, which as you know, was rife with battles. Caesar was meticulous about writing down every detail of his battles, so the descriptions in the books are great!

If you're looking for novels, try The Shoemaker's Wife, by Adriana Trigiani. Here's the Kindle link.
> However, I want to know where these ideas originate.
Wikipedia has a long article on antisemitism.
If you prefer a magical-literary approach, Eco's Prague Cemetery traces a fictionalized history of conspiracy theories including those that have been directed against the Jewish people.
Why antisemitism? Why does any hate group exist - people are dicks. Don't be a dick. Don't encourage hate.
