Abstract:
Summary Medical writings written by Jews in late medieval Western and Central Europe demonstrate that although Jews were excluded from universities, the medical world outside of the universities was open to them. Jewish medical writers relied on Latin and vernacular sources and often they wrote in German. Emphasising the importance of knowledge of authoritative books, they attempted to secure their social standing by demonstrating that they confirmed to the generally accepted social norm that required physicians and surgeons to rely on learned medicine. Nevertheless, only a few Jewish medical practitioners wrote books.

Abstract:
Abstract This article discusses the phenomenon of dynasties of Jewish physicians in the Late Middle Ages in Egypt and Syria. Based on Muslim Arabic historiographical literature on the one hand, and Jewish sources such as Genizah documents on the other, this paper reconstructs fourteen dynasties of Jewish physicians that were active in the Mamluk Sultanate (1250–1517). Examination of the families reveals that the most distinguished dynasties of court physicians were of Jewish origin, and had to convert to Islam during the Mamluk period. Moreover, the office of the “Head of the Physicians” was occupied mainly by members of these convert Jewish dynasties. This situation stands in stark contrast to the pre-Mamluk period, in which dynasties of unconverted Jewish court physicians flourished. However, Jewish sources reveal that dynasties of doctors who were also communal leaders continued to be active also during the Mamluk period.

Desde o começo de sua carreira como escritor, Philip Roth tem sido acusado por líderes judeus americanos, e até mesmo por alguns críticos literários de anti-semitismo e ódio pela sua condição de judeu. Essas acusações foram motivadas pela maneira como ele retrata a vida judaica americana em seus trabalhos de ficção, a qual, na visão de seus acusadores denigre o povo judeu, suas tradições em instituições. Esta dissertação tem como objetivo analisar a verdadeira intenção da abordagem que ele dá ao judaismo em sua ficção. A conclusão é que embora uma leitura superficial dos livros de Roth possa levar o leitor a concordar com as acusações dos líderes judeus e dos rabinos.O objetivo dele ao abordar o judaismo está longe disto no que se refere à sua vida religiosa, os protagonistas de Roth realmente mantém um certo distanciamento do judaismo porque eles estão empenhados na busca de uma religiosidade que transcende os limites de qualque religião enquanto organização.

Abstract:
This thesis explores the limits of fictional language by studying the work of Jewish American writer-critics, novelists who significantly engaged with literary criticism, and critics who experimented with the novel or short fiction. These writer-critics all believed in Literature: they believed that literature could effect social change and educate the masses; or they believed in literature as an art-form, one that exposed the myths underlying American society, or that revealed something fundamental about the human condition. Yet it is because they believed so stridently in the concept of Literature that they turned to non-fiction. Writing fiction exposed problems that Literature could not resolve. They describe being haunted by “preoccupations” that they could not exhaust in fiction alone. They apologetically refer to their critical texts as “by-products” of their creative writing. Writer-critics were forced to decide what the limits of fiction were, and they adopted other types of writing to supplement these unexpected gaps in fiction's power. This dissertation contains four chapters and an introduction. The introduction establishes the methodological difficulties in writing about author-critics, and introduces a set of principles to guide the study. Chapter 1 approaches Abraham Cahan's The Rise of David Levinsky (1917). I argue that many of the novel's difficulties result from Cahan's desire to present the way that ideology shades our understanding of reality while minimizing direct narratorial intrusions. Chapter 2 studies how politics affected the work of Mike Gold, Moishe Nadir, and Isaac Bashevis Singer. In all three writers, literature emerges as a kind of ersatz-politics, a space for the dispossessed to imagine the political. In the end, the political novel only reinforces the fictionality. Chapter 3 is a study of Leslie Fiedler's problematic novel, The Second Stone. While critics have seen the novel as a kind of game, I propose reading the novel as an earnest expression of Fiedler's vision of literature as a conversation. Chapter 4 turns to Cynthia Ozick and Susan Sontag. A cumulative reading of their fiction and criticism shows the deep twinning of their fiction and critical thought. For both writers true knowledge comes only through the imagination.

Abstract:
This study seeks to identify and describe the characteristic elements of European Jewish fiction during the period 1890-1945. Writings that deal with overtly religious themes or which have Zionist publicistic tendencies have been excluded and emphasis is placed on works with settings that are sim- ilar to those to be found in contemporary European fiction by non-Jewish writers. In order to provide a broad comparison, the study incorporates representative literary material by Jews from both Western and Eastern intellectual traditions, and includes texts in the three major languages of artistic expression in these communities: German, Yiddish, and Hebrew. On the basis of this material, it is argued that, in three respects at least, there is an identifiable unity in secular Jewish writing. Firstly, there is a thematic preoccupation with thwarted idealism, which is elaborated in a complex interaction among such themes as social alienation, ambivalence in interpersonal relationships, political altruism and impotence. Secondly, there is a consistent treatment of the characterisation of women, the devel- opment of their relationships to men, and the role of the family. Finally, there is a special reliance on the literary device of irony, in both its verbal and situational forms. The introductory chapter provides historical background and gives a general outline of the thesis. Subsequent chapters are organised as a sequence of thematic and stylistic comparisons; firstly between represen- tative texts from Eastern and Western Jewish communities and finally between the writings of a Jewish and a non-Jewish author, in an analysis of the use of irony in the works of Siegfried Kracauer and Thomas Mann. The German texts studied are Der Weg ins Freie by Arthur Schnitzler, Junge Frau von 1914 by Arnold Zweig, Kafka's Das Schlofl, Georg and Ginster by Siegfried Kracauer and Die Flucht ohne Ende by Joseph Roth. The Yid- dish writings are Di mishpokhe Karnovski and Khaver Nakhmen by I.J. Singer, Tsvishn emigrantn, Nokh Alemen and Mides-hadin by Dovid Bergelson and Di gas by Yisroel Rabon and the Hebrew texts are Nokhah hayam and Hayey nisu'im by David Vogel.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis sets out to examine the nature of modern Jewish stereotyping in English society with reference to a wide range of English fiction which, for the most part, has been previously undocumented in these terms. Instead of a purely literary analysis of the fictional Jewish stereotype, this thesis places the Jewish stereotype in a specific ideological and historical context which is then related to a given writer-or group of writers—and their fiction. Two chapters, moreover, demonstrate the material results of Jewish stereotyping in English society with reference to the internalisation and institutionalisation of Jewish stereotyping by British Jewry and the AngloJewish novel. The variety and impact of Jewish stereotyping is shown to encompass the ideologies of liberalism, social Darwinism, Imperialism, antisemitism, proto-Zionism, Socialism and mainstream versions of sexuality. The concluding chapter relates the modern Jewish stereotype, which was formed after the 1870s, to a more general ahistorical mythic view of the Jew. In particular, this chapter refers to the links between modern Jewish stereotyping and the traditional Christian view of the Jew. With reference to a wide range of writers, more general questions are raised in this chapter concerning the continuity of Jewish stereotyping and the choice of a given stereotype by a particular social or literary group.

Abstract:
Looking at the development of diagnostics from prehistorical days up to know and even further visioning into the future the shamans of the old days were slowly replaced by the early “all-round” doctor having first simple diagnostical and surgery possibilities, changing to nowadays specialized physicians doing the diagnoses based on analytical results provided by decentralized specialized labs. Future visions present doctors offices harboring small instruments that allow the physicians to do analyses directly as fast and as minimally or even non-invasive as possible advantageously combined with a connection to a smart health care database providing anamnesis and providing possible therapeutical measures. Already in the 1960s’ science fiction series Star Trek the spaceship crew used very small instruments for fast, non-invasive diagnosis and treatment. Although, such analyzers are future vision actual developments lead to less and less complex and small systems. Using micro- and nano-technologies manifold approaches addressing so-called “Lab-on-a-chip (LoC)” or “micro total analysis systems (μTAS)” where described during the last two decades. Huge progress can be seen in miniaturization not only of electronics but also of mechanics. While presently, table-top systems reach the market handheld systems providing complete analysis from sample taking to result are rare. Presently, often complex sample preparation methods have to be performed to reach the sensitivity and robustness needed for reliable results. In addition, specific disease markers are still missing that give clear conclusions about health status. In this field, intensive research is going on identifying new better and more specific markers for fast and easy reliable determination of diseases, infections, predispositions and more. Having markers available where each marker gives a non-misleading conclusion that a person will have or already has a certain disease, being able to determine these markers directly from the sample without complex sample preparation steps and having instruments available being preferably portable and applicable by non-specialists such a vision is getting closer. The actually developed miniaturized instruments are an important step towards the envisioned future systems demonstrating the basic proof of concept and thereby heralding a new era of diagnosis.
