Download or read book Locating Europe written by Rodolphe Gasché and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2021-06-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is the idea of Europe outdated? The concept of European unity, the animating spirit of the European Union, seems increasingly fragile in the face of far-right populist movements. In Locating Europe , Rodolphe Gasché attempts to answer the question of how to think about Europe. Is it a figure, a concept, or an idea? Is there anything still compelling and urgent about the idea of Europe? By looking at phenomenologist and postphenomenological thinkers in the second half of the 20th century, Gasché reveals that Europe is more than just one geographical and cultural entity. The idea of Europe is based on common foundations: a distinctive conception of reason, of self-criticism, of responsibility, freedom, equality, human rights, and democracy, and it is these foundations that are under threat. In Locating Europe: A Figure, a Concept, an Idea? Gasché engages the philosophy of Hans-Georg Gadamer, Karl Jaspers, Karl Löwith, and others, focuses on the most significant philosophical representations of Europe, and explores the potential, and especially the limits, of the notion of Europe.

Download or read book At Eden s Door written by David Rechter and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2022-12-15 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leon Kellner was part of the intellectual and cultural elite of imperial Austria. Engaged in politics, a member of his regional parliament, and an essayist of repute, he was also a Zionist leader and confidant of Theodor Herzl. He created an institution for Jews’ cultural, educational, and social advancement modelled on London’s Toynbee Hall, which spread across east-central Europe to great effect. He was also an internationally recognized Shakespeare scholar. Yet for all this, today he is little known. How did someone born into a lower-middle-class Orthodox Jewish family from the province of Galicia come to gain such prominence in the Habsburg empire? Kellner’s is a thoroughly Habsburg Jewish story, spanning east and west and shaped by the empire’s history, politics, and culture. He was a singular character: a Galician Jew at home in Vienna and in Czernowitz, eyes towards Zion, yet content also in London, and never more so than when absorbed in the minutiae of Shakespeare’s texts. Kellner’s world was destroyed twice over: Habsburg Austria came to an end in 1918, east-central European Jewry in 1945. This biography recovers at least part of what was lost.

Download or read book State Violence in Nazi Germany written by Emanuel Marx and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-26 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through analyses of three eventful years in Nazi Germany’s history – the Kristallnacht pogrom, the invasion of Poland and the invasion of Soviet Russia – this book explores the violence of states. All three events were part of the Nazi colonial project and led to mass killings, eventually resulting in the systematic murder of Jews becoming a major war aim – one that Germany would pursue to the end, even when it became clear that the military conflict could no longer be won. Drawing on voluminous historical and sociological literature, as well as documentary and contemporary evidence, the author presents a new account of the phenomenon of extreme state violence as a special category of violence, in which the armed forces, maintained in a state of readiness, are used unnecessarily and excessively, often on thin pretexts, and, unlike coercive violence, only rarely for the purposes of carrying messages to the public. As such, it will appeal to scholars of sociology, history and anthropology concerned with mass and state violence.

Download or read book Religion and Illness written by Annette Weissenrieder and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2016-11-04 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the relevant conceptualities and terminologies marking the coupling of religion and medical interpretations of illness in different religions such as Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, and Christianity? How do religious orientations influence courses of a disease? How do experiences of illness change images of the divine in late modernity? This collection of essays from a symposium held at the International Research Institute of the University of Heidelberg examines connections between religious and medical interpretations of illness in different cultures in order to suggest criteria for coupling religion and medicine in ways that enhance rather than diminish life. By discerning which relationships between religion and medicine appear to be beneficial and which harmful, the book as a whole proposes criteria that are not limited to a single scientific approach, cultural tradition, or time period (such as the present). The book has four parts, which deal with Islamic medicine, Chinese medicine, and the relationship between religion and medicine in both Jewish and Christian traditions. All chapters cover from antiquity to the present.

Download or read book Reading Mark s Gospel as a Text from Collective Memory written by Sandra Huebenthal and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2020-05-28 with total page 644 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did the Gospel of Mark come to exist? And how was the memory of Jesus shaped by the experiences of the earliest Christians? For centuries, biblical scholars examined texts as history, literature, theology, or even as story. Curiously absent, however, has been attention to processes of collective memory in the creation of biblical texts. Drawing on modern explorations of social memory, Sandra Huebenthal presents a model for reading biblical texts as collective memories. She demonstrates that the Gospel of Mark is a text evolving from collective narrative memory based on recollections of Jesus’s life and teachings. Huebenthal investigates the principles and structures of how groups remember and how their memory is structured and presented. In the case of Mark’s Gospel, this includes examining which image of Jesus, as well as which authorial self-image, this text as memory constructs. Reading Mark’s Gospel as a Text from Collective Memory serves less as a key to unlock questions about the historical Jesus and more as an examination of memory about him within a particular community, providing a new and important framework for interpreting the earliest canonical gospel in context.

Download or read book Der j dische Friedhof bei Binswangen The Jewish Cemetery at Binswangen written by Yehuda Shenef and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2016-05-17 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Der jüdische Friedhof in Binswangen bei Wertingen wurde 1663 errichtet, danach mehrfach erweitert und mit einer Mauer umgeben. In der Nazi-Zeit wurden Friedhof und die Mauer fast vollständig abgeräumt. Die wenigen erhaltenen Steine gelangten erst nach jahrelangen Prozessen aus den Händen des lokalen Steinmetzes zurück an den Friedhof, wo sie meist ohne Zusammenhang neu aufgestellt wurden. Das zweisprachige Buch gibt die hebräischen Inschriften aller Grabsteine mit Übersetzungen und Fotos wieder und vermittelt anhand von Familiengeschichten und Zeitdokumenten, Einblicke von der mittelalterlichen Geschichte der Juden von Wertingen bis zum Ende der Binswanger Gemeinde, deren Nachkommen überall in der Welt ein Zuhause gefunden haben. The JEWISH CEMETERY of BINSWANGEN was established in 1663 and was several times enlarged. After the Nazis had destroyed the entire compound as well as the stone wall, it took yearlong court proceedings to prompt the local stone mason to give back the stolen tomb stones, which than were replaced at the reduced graveyard, however rather randomly. The bilingual (German-English) book has all Hebrew inscriptions along with translations and photos. From the widely unknown medieval history of Jews in neighboring Wertingen as well as family history, house registers and maps until the end of the Jewish community of Binswangen with offspring all over the world.
