Abstract:

Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo demonstrar o anti-semitismo na Companhia de Jesus apontando suas causas e consequências. Enumerei e Entretanto, a intolerância foi se acirrando, os estigmas contra os judeus atingia cada vez mais intensamente os jesuítas cristãos novos. Os dirigentes da Companhia tentarem dar continuidade ao legado tolerante das primeiras gerações dos inacianos. Mas logo adotaram as práticas anti-semitas. A Companhia de Jesus resolveu adotar o Estatuto de Limpeza de Sangue que impediu o ingresso dos conversos. Encerrou-se a etapa humanista dos inacianos. Fechou-se a porta da casa que acolheu e permitiu que muitos cristãos novos fizessem parte do rol dos expoentes jesuítas. analisei os motivos pelos quais a Ordem recebeu os cristãos novos em um contexto de crescente sentimento anti-semita. Evidencie o papel relevante desempenhado pelos cristãos novos na criação e no crescimento da Companhia de Jesus até no momento da aprovação do Estatuto de Limpeza de Sangue. Analisei os conflitos que a Companhia de Jesus enfrentou devido ao recebimento dos conversos. Esta política de tolerância com os cristãos novos foi contestada, desde o início, tanto por jesuítas cristãos velhos, quanto pela nobreza, por membros influentes das coroas ibéricas e pelo Tribunal do Santo Ofício. Com o transcorrer do tempo os anti-semitas foram ganhando força política. Os cristãos novos começaram a perder os cargos ocupados durante os primeiros anos da Companhia e o ingresso na Ordem foi se tornando cada vez mais dificultado e em alguns casos não eram recebidos antes mesmo da aprovação do Estatuto de Limpeza de Sangue. Apesar das dificuldades enfrentadas, nos primeiros trinta anos da Companhia de Jesus foi possível receber os conversos. A Ordem sempre encontrava alguma forma de incorporá-los ao seu corpo de sacerdotes. Transferia os descriminados para lugares onde o anti-semitismo fosse menor ou mudava seus nomes. This research had as objective to show the anti-semitism in the Jesus Company pointing its causes and consequences. I analysed and enumerated the reasons for which the Order received them in a context from increasing anti-semitic sense. Its has been showed the relevant role played by the new christians in the creation and growth of the Jesus Company even in the moment of approval of Statute of Clenness of Blood. It had been analized that the Jesus of Company faced due to the act receiving of the converts. This politics of tolerance with the new christians was contested, since the beginning, both for old christian jesuits, and for the nobility, influential members of the Iberian Crowns and and for the Court of the Saint Profession Along the time the anti-semitcs had been gaining political forces. The new christians had started to lose the ocuppied positions during the first years of the Company and the ingression in the Order was becoming more difficult through the time and in some cases they were not received even before the approval the Statute of Cleannses of Blood. Although the faced difficultys in first years of the Company of Jesus were possible to receive the converts. The Order always found some way to incorporate them in its corps of priests. Transferred the acquitted ones for places where the antisemitism was lesser or changed its names. However the intolerance was became inciting, the stigmas against the Jews reached every time more intensely the new christians jesuits. The leaders of the Company tryed to give continuity to the tolerance legacy of the first generations of ignacians. But they gad soon adopted the anti-semitics practices. The Company of Jesus decided to adopt the Statute of Cleannses of Blood that obstructed the ingression of the converts. It was locked the humanistic stage of the ignatians, and it was closed the door of the house that received and allowed that many new christians were part of the roll of the notorious jesuits.

Abstract:

Although anti-Semitism is a fact of Arab life, most individuals prefer to describe it as political animosity and religious polemic. This explains why my study has only drawn from works on the subject by Western historians – because no Arab historian has even acknowledged that it exists, let alone written about it.In this study I compare and analyze the different views my sources have on some matters related to the subject of Jew-hatred among Arabs; these are Zionism, the origins of Arab nationalism, the legendary age of tolerance in Al-andalus (Muslim Spain) and the treatment of Jews in the Quran. In most of my sources I find that:<ul><li>For Arabs, Zionism and Jewishness are one and the same thing. </li><li>The influence of Nazi ideals and prejudices on Arab nationalism and the paranoid attitudes of the region’s leaders effectively stymie any chances of reconciliation between the two peoples. </li><li>Historical evidences show that the much-praised racial harmony of Al-andalus has been exaggerated for political purposes. </li><li>The negative image of Jews in the Quran has been deliberately misinterpreted in order to keep hatred of Jews alive among Arabs today. </li></ul>To see just how effective anti-Semitic indoctrination has been on reasonable, educated people, I sent a simple question to my Arab friends around the world asking them to say what they really think of Jews, hoping to get some candid answers. But to my great disappointment, not one of them replied.

Stoetzler, Marcel. "Liberalism, nationalism and anti-Semitism in the 'Berlin anti-Semitism dispute' of 1879/1880." Thesis, Middlesex University, 2003. http://eprints.mdx.ac.uk/13385/.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis analyses the series of newspaper and journal articles and pamphlets published in 1879/1880 which constitute what came to be called the 'Berlin anti-Semitism dispute'. They were written by the German historian and politician Heinrich von Treitschke and some of the political and academic figures who responded to his anti-Jewish statements, and they discuss the anti-Semitic movement and the place of Jews in German society at that time. Treitschke's texts have been seen as crucial to both the development of modem anti-Semitism in Germany and the emergence of a distinctly German form of nationalism. But the debate which they provoked also reveals a great deal about social and political thought at that time, and in particular the relationship between anti-Semitism and liberalism; most of the contributors were liberals like Treitschke, or opponents of liberalism. As well as providing a close reading of the debate in a full- length study (something which has not been done before) this thesis also analyses it in terms of the wider issues of nationalism and liberalism. What emerges from this material is a conceptual weakness of liberalism in its relation to anti-Semitism and Jewish emancipation. Both Treitschke's support for anti-Semitism and the ambivalence evident in the views of his opponents are shown here to be rooted in the contradiction between inclusionary and exclusionary tendencies inherent in the nation-form. To the extent that liberal society constitutes itself in the form of a national state, it has to guarantee, or produce, some degree of homogeneity or conformity of a national culture. This necessity leads Treitschke to embrace, and his critics to be unable to fully oppose, anti-Semitism. In this respect the thesis aims to provide a starting point for a critical assessment of current debates on nationalism vs. patriotism, ethnic minorities and 'multi-cultural society'.

Abstract:

A tese propõe-se explicar as peculiaridades do conceito de ideologia na obra de Adorno, entendo-o como conceito central na filosofia adorniana. Para tanto, procura-se em primeiro lugar apresentar uma reinterpretação da articulação entre mito e Aufklärung tal como exposta no livro Dialektik der Aufklärung, a fim de se caracterizar o quadro histórico geral em que se coloca o problema para Adorno. A partir disto, são então analisados os fenômenos principais da reversão da Aufklärung em mito: o antisemitismo e a indústria cultural. Quanto ao primeiro, discutem-se os textos de Adorno produzidos no âmbito do Projeto de Pesquisa sobre o Anti-Semitismo e os Elementos do Anti-Semitismo buscando-se obter as bases psicológicas e sócio-econômicas do fenômeno e, através disto, o diagnóstico adorniano da contemporaneidade. Os resultados deste trabalho são então utilizados na análise da indústria cultural como forma por excelência da ideologia no capitalismo tardio. The thesis proposal is to explain the peculiarities of the concept of ideology in Adorno s works, understanding it as a central concept in the Adornian philosophy. To do so, first it is presented a reinterpretation of the articulation between myth and Aufklärung as it is explained in the book Dialektik der Aufklärung, in order to define the general historical frame in which the issue presents itself to Adorno. After this, anti-semitism and culture industry, the main expressions of the reversion of Aufklärung to mythology, are then analyzed. Regarding the former, the texts written by Adorno within the Research Project on Anti-Semitism and the Elements of Anti-Semitism are discussed, in order to search for the psychological and socio-economic basis of both Fascism and anti-semitism and, through this, present the Adornian diagnosis of the contemporaneity. The results of this work are then used in the analysis of the culture industry as the main form of ideology in the late capitalism.

Abstract:

Thesis advisor: Franck Salameh Anti-Semitism has become a virulent, pervasive phenomenon in the Modern Middle East today. In the past, anti-Semitism was mostly absent from mainstream Middle Eastern society. In the past two centuries, however, social and political upheaval, the encroachment of Western influence in the region, and the effects of Zionist organizations and the state of Israel have made the region a dangerous place for Jews. Anti-Semitism is perpetuated today by political and religious leaders as well as the media and is fueled by the anger and frustration of the people of the Middle East. This study examines the roots and causes of anti-Semitism in Middle Eastern history, in the religions and foreign powers that have impacted the region, and in the events of the twentieth century. It details the nature of anti-Semitism today and examines this phenomenon specifically in Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan in a comparative case study. This investigation closes by examining the possible steps towards ending Jew hatred in the region Thesis (BS) — Boston College, 2010 Submitted to: Boston College.

Just, Thomas. "Contemporary State Policies Toward Anti-Semitism in Germany and Poland." FIU Digital Commons, 2017. http://digitalcommons.fiu.edu/etd/3487.

Full text

Abstract:

Broadly speaking, this research is intended to shed light on how post-genocide societies attempt to address a traumatic history and reconcile the problems of ethnic and religious hatred. Germany and Poland are especially ripe cases for such research given their historical memories of the Holocaust and unique legal and diplomatic efforts to counter anti-Semitism. However, since many of the policies on this issue have only been implemented in the past ten to fifteen years, there has not yet been a comprehensive study that has evaluated their effectiveness. This dissertation will attempt to fill this gap in the literature and provide new insight as to how states can best grapple with this problem. The central question for this research is: Have state policies been effective in reducing levels of anti-Semitic attitudes and incidents in Germany and Poland since 1990? This question will be investigated by first examining the historical development of anti-Semitism in each country, then discussing the policies implemented to address the problem, and finally evaluating the results of such measures. From a public policy perspective, this research will contribute to our understanding of the approaches taken by these two countries and discover which measures have been most effective in reducing anti-Semitic behavior and ideology. The findings show that while the policies implemented have tended to be effective in reducing general anti-Semitic attitudes and helping revive domestic Jewish communities, they have been less successful in reducing levels of anti-Semitic crime. The policy analysis portions of the dissertation provide a number of explanations for these outcomes and acknowledge areas for potential policy improvement. This research has implications not only for the region of Central Europe, but also other societies that continue to grapple with problems of ethnic and religious hatred.

Abstract:

The theme of academic anti-Semitism has been much discussed recently in histories of the interwar period of the University of Vienna, in particular its Faculty of Law and Policy Sciences. This paper complements these studies by focusing in this regard on the economics chairs at this faculty and, more generally, on the fate of the younger generation of the Austrian school of economics. After some introductory remarks the paper concentrates on three case studies: the neglect of Mises in all three appointments of economics chairs in the 1920s; the anti-Semitic overtones in the conflict between Hans Mayer and Othmar Spann, both professors for economics at the faculty; and on anti-Semitism as a determinant of success or failure in academia, and consequently of the emigration of Austrian economists. Finally, we have a short look at the development of economics at the University of Vienna during and after the Nazi regime. (author's abstract) Series: Department of Economics Working Paper Series

Abstract:

Between the 1890s and the 1960s, sport had a distinctive and varied impact on the social, cultural, political and economic life of the British Jewish community. During this period, Anglo-Jewry developed a clear sporting tradition, in both a direct and indirect sense, and their participation in the world of British sport had a significant impact on processes and discourses surrounding integration, ethnicity and anti-Semitism. Through a broad analysis of archival materials, newspaper sources and oral history, this thesis seeks to examine the influence that sport exerted on the Jewish community – paying particular attention to the ways in which physical recreation affected the internal dynamics of the community and influenced Jewish relations and interactions with the wider non-Jewish population. As will be shown, whilst sport is a useful lens through which to view socio-cultural development within Anglo-Jewish history, evidence suggests that physical recreation also had a notable and noticeable direct impact on Jewish life within Britain. Although Jewish sport history is an expanding field in an international context, it has been largely ignored within British academic research. Within the historiography of Anglo-Jewry, little attention has been paid to the socio-cultural impact of sporting participation. Similarly, within research concerning British sport history, race and immigration are themes that have been generally overlooked. As well as redressing important historiographical gaps, this thesis will also help expand our knowledge of the process behind minority integration and will further demonstrate the wider social importance, and the extensive and varied applications, of the historical study of sport. This thesis demonstrates that sport has been a key area for the creation, maintenance and erosion of Anglo-Jewish identity and has been an arena for the development, reinforcement and undermining of Jewish stereotypes. Sport, effectively, assumed a central role in Jewish life throughout this time period and was a pivotal factor in many social, cultural and political changes affecting the Jewish community of Britain.

Definimos nosso objeto em torno da análise do período que abarca do final da Primeira Guerra Mundial, até a expansão e chegada ao poder do Partido Nazista, na década de 1930. Tendo como objeto central a obra Mein Kampf de Adolf Hitler, analisaremos como diferentes ideologias concorreram para a criação de uma doutrina, e o papel do antissemitismo nesse processo. Remontamos as origens de diferentes discursos na sociedade alemã, e como esses discursos convergiram em um projeto político. Objetivamos compreender tanto o poder que a articulação de ideias pode ter dentro de um determinado contexto social, quanto as relações entre ideologia e sociedade. Analisamos as formas que o pensamento conservador assume para o reestabelecimento da ordem e do controle social e em última análise compreender como é possível "naturalizar" as diferenças e as práticas discriminatórias, num processo em que o outro é sub-humanizado, subalternizado, e que se legitimam a segregação, a violência e o extermínio Abstract: This research aims through political discourse and the Nazi project to understand the origins of contemporary conservative thought and modern forms of discrimination and violence, especially those arising from the idea of order and control partner, so as the relationship between conservative thought and mass society in the crisis of modernity. We define our object of analysis around the period spanning the end of World War I, to the expansion and rise to power of the Nazi Party in the 1930s. Taking as its central object the work of Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf, consider how different ideologies contributed to the creation of a doctrine, and the role of anti-Semitism in this process. Reassemble the origins of different discourses in society, and how these discourses have converged on a political project. We aim to understand both the power of articulation of ideas can have within a given social context and the relationship between ideology and society. We analyzed the ways in which conservative thought takes for re-establishment of order and social control and ultimately understand how it is possible to "naturalize" the differences and discriminatory practices, a process in which the other is subhumanized, subordinazed, e its legitimized segregation, violence and the slaughter Mestre

Priest, Annie. "The Haskalah : a cultural response to anti-semitism in Eastern Europe 1840-1920." Thesis, Kingston University, 2000. http://eprints.kingston.ac.uk/20660/.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis examines the inter-relationship between the Haskalah and anti-Semitism in Eastern Europe in the period 1840-1920, a focus which it will be argued has been ignored or understated in recent literature. This dynamic inter-relationship produced a cultural response which ushered in a new sense of Jewish identity. This cultural response assumed two dimensions, the analysis of which constitutes the core of this thesis. The first dimension will be explored in the political, the linguistic and the literary domains of the Haskalah. Using close textual analysis of selected Haskalah writers and adopting an inter-disciplinary focus consistent with the methodology of the history of ideas, within all three cultural domains a response to anti-Semitism can be detected in firstly the political domain in which the growth of Jewish nationalism developed into Zionism; secondly, in the linguistic domain resulting in the revival and rebirth of Hebrew and Yiddish; and thirdly, in the literary domain in which new forms of literature and poetry helped to transform attitudes towards modem Jewish identity. The second dimension represents the shift from invisibility to visibility, from assimilation to uniqueness which occurred within the Haskalah movement. The Haskalah in Eastern Europe thus went through two stages and both were a direct response to anti-Semitism. The Haskalah and anti-Semitism acted upon each other in a dialectical process to bring about these two stages. The first can be seen as negative, adopting many of the anti-Semitic stereotypes of the time in which the Jews were persuaded to become invisible, to disappear by total assimilation into the surrounding culture. The second stage was positive in that there was a rejection of anti-Semitic perceptions of the Jew, and a firm declaration of the intrinsic value and worth of Jewish experience and culture. Jewish identity then assumed a unique visibility of its own. This thesis will explore both of these stages and the tension between invisibility and visibility, between assimilation and uniqueness. Using the heuristic device of the two dimensional nature of the Haskalah, an analysis and interpretation of the Haskalah and its contribution to the emergence of a modem Jewish identity will be provided.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis examines anti-Semitism in the Alberta Social Credit Party under the Aberhart and Manning regimes. It is based on various archival sources from the Glenbow Archives-Institute in Calgary, Alberta, the Premiers' Papers at the Provincial Archives of Alberta in Edmonton, contemporary press reports, and the Social Credit Party's national organ, the Canadian Social Crediter. It argues that anti-Semitism in the Alberta Social Credit Party was not the purview of a marginal, extreme wing of the Party, but that it was an integral element of Social Credit ideology. This ideology was espoused by most Social Crediters, including premiers Aberhart and Manning. When Ernest Manning purged the Movement of its anti-Semites in 1947-1948, he was attempting, unsuccessfully, to eradicate the very essence of Social Credit ideology. The consequence of thirty-six years of Social Credit rule is the persistence of an Albertan political culture which breeds provincialism and intolerance.

Full text

Abstract:

Between World Wars I and II, allied forces girded themselves to quash yet another enemy bent on world conquest: fascism. In England, however, the British fascists set about to save what they saw as a dying empire. In an effort to restore Britain's greatness, British fascism held to fascist principles and doctrine to stem the flow of immigration, which fascists saw as darkening the pure British culture. While many of the British fascists strongly admired Nazi Germany's version of fascism, they were unique in that they forged their solutions from social ills that were distinctly British. British fascists were unabashedly anti-Semitic. They feared a Jewish threat to Britain's economy and culture and sought to counter it on every front. History, according to the British fascists, was rife with conspiracies which threatened the established "order of things." Unfortunately, their fears of conspiracy were so fantastic that their rationale was at times clouded and to their detriment. Foremost in the thinking of British fascists, Britain itself and all things British stood paramount to the exclusion of all else. Only an enormous resurgence of British nationalism would serve to regain Britain's proud heritage and future. Widely held principles of British fascism included direct representation in government for all occupations. All Britons would work in the interest of Britain, placing individual interests secondary to the whole of British culture. British fascism called for all Britons to actively involve themselves in the organic body of the British fascist state. Honor, duty, and loyalty would guide all Britons to a heightened sense of nationalism which would enable the individual to flourish within the fascist state. British fascism offered a sense of greatness to the British people. When all Britons embraced the nationalism of British fascism, pride of country, strength of family, honor of the individual, and the greatness of the British Empire all would be restored.

Abstract:

A presente tese analisa as formas de estruturação e as relações entre as comunidades lituanas radicados na Argentina, Brasil e Uruguai. De forma comparada, buscaremos compreender as referências identitarias deste grupo nacional durante o processo de desenraizamento territorial e a formação dos laços de solidariedade ao longo do processo de inserção nos diferentes Estados nacionais. Ao mesmo tempo, analisaremos como estas comunidades se relacionavam, para além das fronteiras dos países em que se estabeleceram, construindo intercâmbios de experiências e organizando movimentos sociais e políticos. Das diferentes posturas políticas identificaremos os conflitos no interior das comunidades e destas com os Estados e a sociedade argentina, brasileira e uruguaia. Ainda consideraremos o papel do governo lituano nas formações comunitárias, durante o período de independência do país (1918 1940). Procuraremos observar a relação entre os lituanos de origem judaica com a estruturação das comunidades nacionais lituanas. Adotaremos como balizas temporais os anos de 1920 a 1950, contemplando os dois principais momentos desta imigração para a América do Sul. We aim to investigate the forms of organization and the relation among the Lithuanian communities rooted in Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay. By comparing them, we seek to understand the identity references within each national group during the process of territorial unrooting and solidarity bonding along with the inset processes in the different national States. At the same time, we intend to analise how those communitites have related to each other, beyond the country boundaries in which they had established themselves, building experience interchanges and organizing social and political movements. From the different political postures, we intend to identify the conflicts within the communities and against the Argentinian, Brazilian, and Uruguayan States and societies. We still intend to consider the Lithuanian government role in the community formation during the period of the country independency (1918-1940). We also look for observing the relation among the originally Jewish Lithuanian and the Lithuanian national communities formation process. We have considered the years between 1920 and 1950 as our time range, comprising the two main moments of the imigration to South America.

Tem como base a relação dos judeus italianos que, a partir de 1938, foram obrigados a deixar seu país após a emissão das leis raciais fascistas (1938). Com destaque, analisa a postura de Jorge Latour, diplomata brasileiro, atento aos efeitos das leis de exclusão no território italiano. Os relatórios de Latour tinham como objetivo estimular os políticos brasileiros a seguir o mesmo caminho da Itália fascista. Investiga a concessão de vistos aos judeus italianos refugiados no Brasil, assim como suas estratégias de sobrevivência e formas de adaptação à comunidade brasileira em geral. We present the results of a research into the Italian Jewish immigration in Brazil, and particularly in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, in the face of the anti-Semitic policy of Getúlio Vargas´s government (1937-1945). This research is based on a list of Italian Jews who were forced to leave their country after the issuance of the fascist racial laws in 1938. It especially analyses the position of Brazilian diplomat Jorge Latour, alert to the effects of the laws of exclusion in Italian territory. Latour´s reports aimed at stimulating Brazilian politicians to follow the same path of fascist Italy. It investigates the concession of visas to Italian Jews who took refuge in Brazil, as well as the subterfuges they used to survive and their forms of adaptation to the Brazilian community in general.

Abstract:

The central focus of this thesis is to rediscover Julius Streicher and to determine whether his actions merited the same punishment as other persons executed for war crimes. Sources used include Nuremberg Trial documents and testimony, memoirs of Nazi leaders, and other Nazi materials. The thesis includes seven chapters, which cover Streicher's life, especially the prewar decades, his years out of power, and his trial at Nuremberg. The conclusion reached is that Streicher did have some influence on the German people with his anti-Semitic newspaper Der Sturmer, but it is difficult to ascertain whether his speeches and writings contributed directly to the extermination of the Jews in World War II or simply reflected and magnified the anti-Semitism of his culture.

Abstract:

This thesis explores the role of anti-Semitism in the ideology of the ‘Legion of the Archangel Michael’, the only lasting mass movement in Romanian history and the third largest fascist organisation in Europe. The legionary movement’s revolutionary character and rejection of democratic institutions, its ideological emphasis on a project of ‘regeneration’ of the nation, its ultra-nationalism, and its populist propaganda style allow us to include it within the category of generic fascism, as defined by Roger Griffin. One of the commonplaces in theories of fascism argues that it was, as an ideology, better defined by what it stood against than what it stood for. By analysing the relationship between the legionary movement’s fascist character and its anti- Semitism, the present research seeks to link the two. Thus, this thesis argues for the centrality of the representation of ‘the Jew’ in legionary ideology, seen as a locus of displacement of the real problems facing the rapidly modernising Romanian society and at the same time a rationalisation of its desired state. The entire fascist project of complete transformation of the country found its equally synthetic negative in the movement’s representation of the Jewish community. The analysis of legionary anti-Semitism and its connection with the movement’s fascist character is carried out through the lens of the ‘new consensus’ in theories of fascism, as well as with the help of a methodology indebted mostly to psychoanalytic theory and its adaptations to the understanding of social phenomena by discourse theory. Backed up by research on previously unexplored archival sources, the present thesis combines in an interdisciplinary approach the study of the historical conditions and psychological factors affecting the rise of anti-Semitism in interwar Romania, and allows an exploration of the dynamics of fear and fantasy visible in the legionary representation of the ‘Jew’.

Abstract:

O presente trabalho propõe comparar os escritos de dois ideólogos pertencentes a dois importantes movimentos políticos do século XX: um do integralismo brasileiro e outro do nacional-socialismo alemão respectivamente: Gustavo Barroso e Gottfried Feder. Após uma leitura atenta das obras de cada um dos autores, redigidas nos anos 1920 e 1930, compreendemos que o conceito de capital financeiro foi de fundamental importância para que ambos desenvolvessem uma narrativa conspiratória que denunciava um complô judaico de conquista do mundo. Valendo-nos da História Conceitual, percebemos que as obras de Barroso e Feder significaram um momento-chave na história do conceito de capital financeiro, especialmente tendo em vista que ambos escreviam à luz da primeira hegemonia financeira. Entretanto, enquanto Barroso defendia uma luta de caráter universal contra o capital financeiro, Feder achava que tal luta deveria ser protagonizada pelo povo alemão. Ademais, se, por um lado, Barroso conseguiu permanecer como uma figura de proa do movimento integralista até a sua extinção em 1937, Feder, por outro, acabou marginalizado no cenário político após a ascensão nazista ao poder em 1933. This paper aims at comparing the writings of two ideologues who belonged to two important political movements from the 20th century: one from the Brazilian integralism, and the other from German national-socialism Gustavo Barroso and Gottfried Feder, respectively. After a careful reading of these authors works, written on the 1920es and 1930es, we managed to understand that the concept of financial capital was of main importance for both authors to develop a conspiratorial narrative that uncovered a Jewish plot to conquer the world. Based on the Conceptual History, we noticed that the works of Barroso and Feder represented a key moment in the History of the concept of financial capital, especially considering that both of them wrote during the first financial hegemony. However, while Barroso, on the one hand, thought that the struggle against financial capital should be a universal struggle, Feder, on the other, believed that such struggle should have only the German people as its leading actor. Moreover, while Barroso managed to play a major role in the integralist movement until its ending on 1937, Feder ended up marginalized in the Nazi political scenario after the national-socialist seizure of power on 1933.

Abstract:

Anti-Semitism, or Jew hatred, much of which is expressed and communicated through folklore, has a long history and continues unabated today. Incendiary opinions, deadly misconceptions, and insidious accusations have plagued Jews throughout history. Anti-Semitic expressions and incidents are scattered throughout countless texts, but no single comprehensive reference work that compiles all forms of anti-Semitic folklore motifs exists. This thesis attempts to fill that gap by supplying an index of anti-Semitic motifs. To establish a baseline of already catalogued anti-Semitic motifs, all six volumes of Stith Thompson's Motif-Index of Folklore-Literature: A Classification of Narrative Elements in Folktales, Ballads, Myths, Fables, Mediaeval Romances, Exempla, Fabliaux, Jest-Books and Local Legends were scanned and any relevant motifs listed were archived in a card index. Approximately 250 more previously unidentified motifs were documented from historical materials, published books and articles, artifacts, and personal communications. All motifs used in this study were developed from English sources, or from English speakers borrowing from other languages and cultures. The procedure to categorize the folklore motifs is based on a numbering system developed by folklorist Stith Thompson in 1955. Using Thompson's classifications of motifs as a base, the approximately 250 newly identified anti-Semitic folklore motifs I discovered have been integrated with Thompson motifs. Anti-Semitic materials covered begin with the Middle Ages and continue to the present day. Although not comprehensive, this motif index incorporates examples of anti-Semitic folklore from all genres, making motifs and examples easily accessible for anyone who wishes to analyze historical and current anti-Semitism. Indexing anti-Semitic folklore in a single reference work based on a universal folklore indexing system creates a body of information to be used as a resource tool for education and research of anti-Semitism. Furthermore, the index can easily be expanded as more material comes to light.

Abstract:

LTI Lingua Tertii Imperii, von Victor Klemperer, ist eine tiefgreifende Analyse der faschistischen geistigen Struktur, ausgehend aus der Untersuchung der Manipulation der deutschen Sprache durch die Machthaber in Deutschland, von 1933 bis 1945. Der Autor beweist, daß diese Manipulation das allgemeine Ziel hatte, der deutschen Bevölkerung die Nazi Ideologie einzubleuen, und das besondere, den Antisemitismus zu verbreiten. Das Werk beweist, daß diese Sprache so gut ausgearbeitet wurde, daß der größte Teil der Bevölkerung sie übernahm, sogar einige Juden, ihre größten Opfer. Klemperer, Professor der Romanistik an der Universität Dresden, war ein assimilierter Jude, der sogar zum lutherischen Glauben übertreten war, und der durch die dem Nazismus inhärente Diskriminierung, die ihm sein Deutschtum verleugnete und ihn gewaltsam an sein Judentum erinnerte, überrascht wurde. Selbst abgegrenzt und gedemütigt, vermochte er zu überleben, indem er sich bemühte, seine innere Würde aufrecht zu erhalten, durch ständige, fast besessene Notizen seiner Beobachtungen über die Manipulation der Sprache, die Angst und den Fanatismus des Naziregimes. Die Dissertation untersucht im Detail die verschiedenen Kapitel des Werks, durch Exzerpte ihrer wichtigsten Sätze, mit der dazu gehörigen Übersetzung ins Portugiesische. Sie endet mit einem Glossar von rund sechshundert Wörter der Nazisprache, ins Portugiesisches übersetzt und begleitet von einer Erhebung derjenigen Termini, die das Ende des Regimes überdauerten, verschwanden oder einfach zu ihrem früheren Gebrauch zurückkehrten, sowie derer, die tabuisiert wurden. 'LTI' - 'Lingua Tertii Imperii', de Victor Klemperer, é uma análise profunda da estrutura mental fascista, a partir do estudo da manipulação da língua alemã pelos detentores do poder na Alemanha, entre 1933 e 1945. O autor prova que essa manipulação ocorreu com a finalidade geral de inculcar a ideologia nazista e a particular de disseminar o anti-semitismo junto ao povo alemão. A obra demonstra que essa nova linguagem foi tão bem engendrada, que a maior parte da população passou a empregá-la, até mesmo alguns judeus, suas principais vítimas. Klemperer, professor de Filologia Românica na Universidade de Dresden, era um judeu assimilado e até mesmo convertido à confissão luterana, que foi pego de surpresa pela discriminação inerente ao nazismo, que negou sua alemanidade e o relembrou violentamente de seu judaísmo. Mesmo segregado e humilhado, conseguiu sobreviver, empenhando-se em manter sua dignidade interior, anotando de forma quase obsessiva suas observações sobre a manipulação da linguagem, o medo e o fanatismo no regime nazista. A dissertação faz uma análise pormenorizada dos diversos capítulos da obra, mediante excertos de suas principais frases, com a respectiva tradução. Encerra-se com um glossário que reúne perto de seiscentos termos da linguagem nazista, traduzidos para o português e acompanhados de um levantamento daqueles termos que perduraram após o fim do regime, daqueles que desapareceram ou simplesmente voltaram para o uso anterior, bem como daqueles que foram tabuizados.

Abstract:

The thesis examines the relationship between Britain’s Jews, both established and refugee, with the host community from 1938 to 1948. The relationship is studied in the light of events in Europe and the Near East from the 1938 Anschluss to the 1948 founding of Israel and the ways they impacted upon Jews in Britain. The work shows a positive reaction towards Jews in Britain, with few, but specific exceptions. Existing academic work has often concentrated on those exceptions, particularly in the East End of London. This study looks at the wider Jewish experience to show a more peaceful and tolerant coexistence than has formally been presented, especially to recently arrived Jews. The focus of the thesis is on the different personal experiences of Jews in Britain, against the more familiar high political context of the period. The thesis does not dispute the existence of anti-Semitism, but shows that it was limited to traditional geographical areas and has been in many cases confused with a more general xenophobia towards any ‘outsider’ or ‘foreigner’. It also deals with what the study refers to as ‘pragmatic’ government decisions regarding Jews and highlights some non-Jewish reactions which have been seen as discriminatory, but in fact were often born out of naive ignorance or having no realistic alternative. Using different approaches to examine a wide and fragmented cross section of Jews, the thesis shows the internal struggle many faced when dealing with the issues of what it meant to be British, a Jew and for some, a desire to have a safe homeland in Palestine. Overall, it is a study in the transformation of Jewish society in Britain from being deferential and submissive to one of assertiveness and self-reliance born out of necessity.

Definimos nosso objeto em torno da análise do período que abarca do final da Primeira Guerra Mundial, até a expansão e chegada ao poder do Partido Nazista, na década de 1930. Tendo como objeto central a obra Mein Kampf de Adolf Hitler, analisaremos como diferentes ideologias concorreram para a criação de uma doutrina, e o papel do antissemitismo nesse processo. Remontamos as origens de diferentes discursos na sociedade alemã, e como esses discursos convergiram em um projeto político. Objetivamos compreender tanto o poder que a articulação de ideias pode ter dentro de um determinado contexto social, quanto as relações entre ideologia e sociedade. Analisamos as formas que o pensamento conservador assume para o reestabelecimento da ordem e do controle social e em última análise compreender como é possível “naturalizar” as diferenças e as práticas discriminatórias, num processo em que o outro é sub-humanizado, subalternizado, e que se legitimam a segregação, a violência e o extermínio This research aims through political discourse and the Nazi project to understand the origins of contemporary conservative thought and modern forms of discrimination and violence, especially those arising from the idea of order and control partner, so as the relationship between conservative thought and mass society in the crisis of modernity. We define our object of analysis around the period spanning the end of World War I, to the expansion and rise to power of the Nazi Party in the 1930s. Taking as its central object the work of Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf, consider how different ideologies contributed to the creation of a doctrine, and the role of anti-Semitism in this process. Reassemble the origins of different discourses in society, and how these discourses have converged on a political project. We aim to understand both the power of articulation of ideas can have within a given social context and the relationship between ideology and society. We analyzed the ways in which conservative thought takes for re-establishment of order and social control and ultimately understand how it is possible to naturalize the differences and discriminatory practices, a process in which the other is subhumanized, subordinazed, e its legitimized segregation, violence and the slaughter

Abstract:

This thesis uses critical discursive psychology to analyse anti-Semitic and Islamophobic discourse on the Facebook pages of two far-right organisations: Britain First and the English Defence League. Using the Charlie Hebdo attack as a time frame, I examine how the far-right manage their identity and maintain rationality online, as well as how users on Facebook respond to the far-right. This thesis demonstrates how Britain First and the English Defence League present themselves as reasonable in their anti-Semitic and anti-Islamic stance following the Charlie Hebdo shooting. Ultimately, I bring together the study of fascist discourse and political discourse on social media using critical discursive psychology, in a novel synthesis. The Charlie Hebdo shooting and the shooting at the kosher supermarket in Paris in January 2015 (as well as other attacks by members of the Islamic State) have led to Muslims being seen as a threat to Britain, and thus Muslims have been exposed to Islamophobic attacks and racial abuse. The current climate is a challenging situation for the far-right, as they are presented with the dilemma of appearing as rational and even mainstream, whilst nevertheless adopting an anti-Islamic stance. The analysis focuses on how Britain First and the English Defence League used the shooting at the Kosher supermarket to align with Jews in order to construct them as under threat from Islam, and promote its anti-Islamic stance. I also analyse visual communication used by Britain First to provide evidence that Britain First supported Jewish communities. Discourse from Facebook users transitioned from supportive towards Jews, to questioning the benefits that Jews brought to Britain, and expressing Holocaust denial. Furthermore, I discuss how other far-right politicians in Europe such as Geert Wilders from the Dutch Party for Freedom, portrayed himself as a reasonable politician in the anti-Islamic stance he has taken in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo attack. Findings are discussed in light of how the far-right communicate about the Charlie Hebdo shooting whilst maintaining a reasonable stance when projecting anti-Semitic and Islamophobic ideology, and how such discourse can encompass hate speech. I demonstrate how critical discursive psychology can be used to show how various conflicting social identities are constructed and interact with each other online. This thesis shows how the far-right use aligning with Jews as means to present Muslims as problematic, and how such alignment has resulted in the marginalisation of both Jews and Muslims.

Abstract:

Denna uppsats Judehatet i Sverige - en undersökning om hur antisemitism kommer till uttryck i Malmö handlar om hur antisemitismen har utvecklats och fått ett starkt fotfäste i den svenska staden Malmö. Genom en teoretisk provtagning har jag valt antale intervjuade personer utifrån deras möjlighet att bidra med relevant kunskap. Jag har även använt mig utav en kvalitativ intervjumetod med tre informanter från den judiska församlingen i Malmö och jag har haft för avsikt att undersöka hur antisemitismen har utvecklats i Malmö och hur detta upplevs av judar. Genom olika artiklar och annan relevant litteratur har jag försökt utvidga det judiska perspektivet om hur stämningen i Malmö upplevs. Analysen belyser hur judar i Malmö upplever att antisemitismen kommer till uttryck och hur judefientligheten ökat i staden samt hur den pågående Israel-Palestinakonflikten påverkar de fientliga stämningarna i staden. Analysen lyfter även fram vilka eventuella orsaker som ligger bakom denna utveckling och på vilket sätt mina informanter tror att man kan arbeta bort antisemitismen i staden. This thesis "Jew-hatred in Sweden - a study on how anti-Semitism is manifested in Malmö" is about how anti-Semitism has been developed and gained a strong foothold in the Swedish city of Malmö. Through a theoretical sampling I selected the number of interviewed persons based on their ability to contribute with relevant knowledge. I have also used a qualitative interview method with three informants from the Jewish community in Malmö and my intention has been to explore how Anti-Semitism has evolved in Malmö and how it affects Jews. Through various articles and other relevant literature I have tried to expand the Jewish perspective on how the mood in Malmö is experienced by them. The analysis highlights how the Jews in Malmö feel that anti-Semitism is expressed and how hostility against Jews has increased and hos the Israeli-Palestinian conflict affects the hostile atmosphere in the city. The analysis also highlights possible reasons behind this development and the way in which my informants believe that they can work against anti-Semitism in the city.

Abstract:

The topic of Tillich and Judaism has received relatively little scholarly treatment. This is despite the importance of Jews and Judaism for Tillich, which is established by numerous biographical details, including the reason for his opposition to the Nazi government and ensuing emigration to the United States in 1933 (Introduction and Chapter 1). Tillich’s ecumenical activities are acknowledged, but Tillich’s dialectical theological method is analyzed to determine how it could have justified his pro-Jewish stance. This refers to his consistent attacks on anti-Semitism, and after World War II, numerous lectures on the structural similarities between Judaism and Christianity, not to mention lifetime relationships with secular and religious Jews (Chapters 1 and 2). Tillich has a dialectical understanding of reality, influenced by F. W. J. Schelling, and this influences every major aspect of his theology. Select primary sources are analyzed to assess the evolution of Tillich’s idea of Judaism through his dialectical, theological and inclusive history of religion (Chapters 3 through 6). ‘Jewish prophetism’, highlighting the critical and existential dimensions of Judaism, emerged as the most characteristic expression, significantly, after World War I, as Tillich rejected the religious nationalism of his early adulthood. After World War II and the Holocaust, Tillich’s ‘dialectic of the Holy’ expressed the fullness of the divine reality as the permanent polar tension between the priestly/mystical/vertical/’Is’, and the prophetic/critical/horizontal/’Ought’. This polar tension is found in his ontology, Christology, and history of religion. The importance of Jewish prophetism, rooted in historic Judaism, would have made it difficult for Tillich to eliminate the Jewish roots of Christianity, compared to the so-called ‘German Christians’ prevalent in Weimar and Nazi Germany. Chapter 7 concludes with a criticism and defence of Tillich’s method. Tillich’s idea of Judaism is inadequate for interfaith dialogue, because it fails to address the fullness of Judaism’s own self-understandings, and is limited to the prophetic aspect. However, the prophetic aspect ensures that the critical and existential aspects of any religion endure in a transformation to a more adequate expression of the divine. Tillich’s ‘religion of the concrete spirit’ not only preserves the importance of Jewish prophetism, but opens the door to dialogue with non-theistic religions, such as Buddhism.

Abstract:

Initially an attempt is made to present an overview of the interpretations of the meaning of Fascism. In a presentation of the views of Renzo De Felice and Zeev Sternhell the opinions of the latter are highlighted. It appears that Stemhell's conclusions better explain Italian Fascism, as well as Nazism, although Sternhell has not extensively described Nazism. His conclusions can also be used to illustrate the fact that most characteristics of Nazism and Fascism were identical, something which De Felice denies. This also applies to anti-Semitism. Then follows an analysis of the origin of the Fascist ideology, and it is stated that this ideology, both in Germany and in Italy originated in the "frn-de-siècle crisis", the anti-positive climate which existed at the end of the 19th century. This climate included a reaction against what was regarded as "decadence". It is maintained that amongst a number of Italian and German intellectuals there existed a number of similar ideas, such as for instance contempt for monetary economy, pacifism, intellectualism, the calm bourgeois life, liberalism, democracy and socialism. In the same environments violence and youth started to be glorified, and finally the modern world was accused of being egotistical and without ideals. It is in this environment that the core of Nazi- Fascism is to be found, a core to which other elements were later added. In later chapters Fascist agricultural policy is discussed in relation to earlier Italian cultural tendencies which had placed great importance on agricultural society. It is pointed out that agricultural policy was an important part of the Fascist ideology. Finally Mussolini's ideas on this subject are described, and it is maintained that the myth of the citizen/small scale farmer/soldier in ancient Rome became, in all important aspects, a part of the agricultural ideology of Fascism. It is shown here that this idea is in harmony with the general philosophy of Fascism. Subsequently, an overview of corporativism and its predecessors in Italian history are presented. Here it is stated that corporativism was a corner-stone of Fascist ideology. Thereafter the basic principals of corporativism are described as well as its tangible contents, and some important suggestions for interpretation are presented. The role of corporativism during the short period that the Italian Socialist Republic existed, is also a subject for discussion. Although this republic was scarcely of any military, economic or political importance, it was not without interest from an ideological point of view, taking into consideration the ideas it presented concerning working life. Finally, in a chapter describing the International University of Perugia, the manner in which Fascist ideology was implemented in concrete situations within the educational sector is investigated. The public support for Fascism appears to have been almost unanimous, but at the same time mostly of a formal nature. If a general conclusion can be drawn from this study, it is that Fascism and its ideology were in reality only of minor importance to education at the university level. In the conclusion it is stated that, despite the obvious contradictions, Fascism had a relatively complete; ideology, which was quite closely related to Nazism. digitalisering@umu

Full text

Abstract:

The thesis examines Serbian conspiracy culture at the time of the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia in the spring of 1999. During the war, conspiratorial themes became a regular occurrence in Serbian mainstream media, as well as in pronouncements by the Serbian political establishment. For the most part, conspiratorial explanations focused on the machinations of transnational elite organisations such as the Bilderberg group or, more generally, on the conspiracy of 'the West'. However, conspiratorial accounts of the war occasionally invoked themes which were previously deemed to be beyond the boundaries of acceptable opinion, such as the allusion to a Jewish conspiracy or to the esoteric and occult aspects of the alleged plot. The thesis outlines the history of conspiracy theories in Serbia and critically reviews psychological approaches to understanding the nature of conspiracy theories. It suggests that the study of conspiratorial discourse requires the exploration of the rhetorical and argumentative structure of specific conspiratorial explanations, while paying special attention to the historical and ideological context within which these explanations are situated. The thesis is largely based upon the examination of the coverage of the war in the Serbian press. Recorded conversations with two well-known Serbian conspiracy theorists are also analysed. The study suggest that conspiratorial interpretations of the war drew upon a longstanding conspiracy tradition of explanation which has a strong anti-semitic legacy and is rooted in right-wing Christian ideology. Analytic chapters explore the discursive and ideological dynamics by which the anti-semitic and mystical aspects of the conspiracy tradition emerged briefly in Serbian mainstream media and political discourse. The thesis concludes by examining the status of conspiracy theories in Serbia in the aftermath of the political changes in October 2000.

Abstract:

This thesis provides an examination of the emergence and development of Sir Oswald Mosley’s British Union of Fascists in the Midlands between 1932 and 1940. It charts the fascist presence in four major cities: Birmingham, Stoke-on-Trent, Coventry and Leicester. The BUF is the largest and most important fascist movement to have ever existed in Britain. Mosleyite fascism in the Midlands as a region has never before been investigated and represents a significant gap in the historiography of British fascist studies. Alongside affording valuable insight into Mosleyite fascism at the regional level, the study will illuminate further understanding of the BUF nationally. The fascist experience in the Midlands is used to test and contribute to arguments about the national movement in the secondary literature relating to three themes: (a) the social class composition of BUF membership; (b) the strength of BUF membership; and (c) the focus of BUF propaganda. Finally, four main areas generally recognised as the reasons for national failure are discussed to explain the long-term marginalisation of the BUF in the Midlands.

Abstract:

This thesis is a study and analysis of Nazi propaganda, specifically focusing on the medium of film. Throughout Hitler’s Third Reich, propaganda played a vital role in maintaining popular support for the party platform in addition to fueling the convictions of the Nazi elite. There are three main divisions to this study. First, an overview of the structure and organization of Nazi Germany and particularly The Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda will be given, followed by an exploration of the origins and evolution of anti-Semitism in the Third Reich. Last, two Nazi anti-Semitic propaganda films will be analyzed to exemplify the whole of Nazi propaganda. Specifically, an emphasis will be made that these films played a significant role in solidifying and sustaining the mentalities and actions desired by the Nazi regime. Consequently, these films can be correlated to historical events which occurred before and after 1940.

Abstract:

The prime objective of this thesis is to grasp the terms of continuity and discontinuity between classical fascism and the contemporary extreme right in Western Europe. With respect to a hypothetical ideal type of fascism, the study will exclusively focus on French Front National case and try to unveil its historical and ideological linkages to the fascist rules in Italy and Germany during the inter-war years. While doing this, the transformation (if any) which certain elements of the extreme right rhetoric went through, will also be examined.

Abstract:

Focusing on the period 1940–1942, this thesis investigates the nature of the relationship between the Vichy regime and Jews of French citizenship who found themselves under its control. Despite Vichy’s implication in the Holocaust, this study examines the possibility for convergence, however partial and temporary, between Vichy’s plans for regeneration and Jewish ambitions to participate in the New Order. This investigation aims to explain the seemingly contradictory circumstances in which a French Jew could be at once persecuted under Vichy’s anti-Semitic legislation, and rewarded for the promotion of certain French values by the government’s programme of National Revolution. This unstudied dilemma is explored in this thesis through an examination of French Jewish youth. An analysis of this social category provides a point of entry into the ambivalences of Vichy’s policies. While Vichy enacted legislation in order to marginalise Jewish participation in the national community, the regime was also emphatically in favour of French Jewish youth contributing to the National Revolution. Methodologically this study moves away from the long-established categories of resistance, rescue and persecution. Rather than merely examining Jewish youth’s activities during the establishment of the Vichy regime as a period of formation and preparation for later resistance or rescue activity, this study seeks to investigate the ways in which, from 1940–1942, the Vichy regime and French Jewish youth sought to coexist. This aspect of the war years has almost entirely disappeared from France’s collective memory and from the historiographical debates over Vichy and the Jews.

Abstract:

This work traces the relationship of Jews to African-Americans in the process of Jews attaining whiteness in the 20th century. Specific attention is paid to blackface performance in The Jazz Singer and the process of identification with suffering. Theoretically this work brings together psychoanalytic theories of projection, repression and masochism with afro-pessimist notions of the libidinal economy of white supremacy. Ultimately, I argue that in its enjoyment and its masochism, The Jazz Singer empathizes with blackness both as a way to assimilate into white America and express doubt at this very act.

Full text

Abstract:

This research consists of three separate studies, which examine these texts in the order they were written, exploring the myriad cultural, political, religious and legal forces situated in the time and place where the texts were created to determine what forces may have influenced their authors in depicting the Jews the way they did. In the first study of the epic Poema de mio Cid, I focus on the legal quandary about whether the Cid should have repaid the two Jewish moneylenders from Burgos who gave him a loan for his military campaign. I examine the anti-Jewish canon and secular laws from this era, particularly those dealing with usury, and explore how the Castilian kings’ flouting of these laws created hostility and, in one telling instance, violent attacks against Jews from Christians who were angry about royal favoritism of the Jews. I compare the twelfth century attacks against an unpopular king and his royal property – the Jews – to the Cid’s deception of Raquel and Vidas, arguing the Campeador’s trick was also a way of inflicting harm on an unpopular king and his royal property, the Jews. I also examine the interrelationships between the increasingly hostile anti-Jewish laws and the Christian’s anti-Jewish social stances and attitudes, exploring how both the legal context and social and cultural contexts could have informed the poet in his portrayal of the two Jews in the text. In the second study, I focused on the various Jewish messianic prophecies detailed in the writings of twelfth century Jewish philosopher Moses Maimonides that existed in Spain during the time the Toledan liturgical drama Auto de los reyes magos was written and performed to see if they may have influenced how the unknown author negatively depicted the Jewish rabbis and members of Herod’s court in the play’s final two highly original scenes. The portrayals of the Jews’ eschatological confusion, I show, may have been created to stop Jews, considered vital to Toledo’s growth and stability, from following contemporary messianic prophecies and migrating to the Holy Land. In the final study, I focus on Gonzalo de Berceo’s caustic representations of Jews in Milagros de Nuestra Señora to determine if his harshly negative portrayals of Jews were a way to deflect attention from the papal-sanctioned clerical reforms that targeted heresy, including clerical abuses in the Benedictine Order, and caused Berceo’s beloved “black monks” to lose substantial funding and power in the Church. By portraying Jews and their behavior as real heresy and as the biggest threats to Christianity, Berceo underscores that clerical abuses and sins of the flesh are less problematic and pardonable.

Abstract:

O presente estudo procura compreender Edith Stein (1891-1942), personagem emblemática do século XX, através de uma perspectiva histórica, psicanalítica e de um método hermenêutico. De origem judaica, nascida em Breslau, Prússia, dedicouse aos estudos filosóficos e ao magistério. Foi aluna de E. Husserl e realizou importantes investigações fenomenológicas, em várias áreas. Discriminada por ser mulher e judia, não pôde seguir uma carreira acadêmica, apesar de suas importantes contribuições teóricas. Converteu-se ao catolicismo tornando-se monja carmelita descalça. Foi presa pela polícia nazista e assassinada em Auschwitz, na câmera de gás, em 1942. Beatificada pelo Papa João Paulo II em 1998, tornou-se co-patrona da Europa. Neste trabalho busquei, através de seu idioma pessoal, as raízes que fecundaram o seu pensamento e a maneira como tentou responder às questões cruciais que a habitaram como mulher, filósofa, judia-católica, vivendo a tensão entre o judaísmo e o catolicismo. As principais fontes utilizadas foram sua autobiografia, cartas, obras e escritos diversos, assim como a literatura produzida sobre ela e sua época, além de material iconográfico. The focus of this research is to understand Edith Stein (1891-1942), an iconic XX century figure, using historical and psychoanalytical perspectives as well as an hermeneutical method. From Jewish origin, Stein was born in Breslau, Prussia, studied with E. Husserl and developed important phenomenological investigations, in education, womanhood, philosophy, theology and mystic. However could not be an academic because of discrimination against both women and Jews. Subsequently she converted to Catholicism and even became a Carmelite monk, neither of which was enough to escape persecution of the Nazis. She flew to Holland, but was arrested by the Gestapo, taken to Auschwitz concentration camp in 1942, where her life ended in a gas chamber. She was beatified by Pope John Paul II in 1998. This work examines the roots and influences of her theoretical contributions as well as the way she answered the fundamental human questions that she dealt with during her lifetime as a woman, a philosopher and a Christian-Jew. The main sources are Steins autobiography, letters, writings and other literature dealing with her life and times.
