Gavin I. Langmuir, worldwide authority on history of anti-Semitism, dead at 81 Langmuir has devoted to unraveling the history of anti-Semitism show why he is a teacher of legendary reputation, as well as a scholar of high distinction." In 1991, History, Religion and Antisemitism was awarded the National Jewish Book Award in the scholarship category. Langmuir published many academic articles but was best known for two books, Toward a Definition of Antisemitism and History, Religion and Antisemitism, both published in 1990. Former student Geoffrey Koziol, an associate professor of medieval history at the University of California-Berkeley, said Langmuir was interested in the development of a global explanation that would conform to both historical accuracy and the standards of models of sociology and social psychology to understand the reasons for anti-Semitism and religious prejudice in general. news-service.stanford.edu /news/2005/july27/obit-langmuir-072705.html   (744 words)

Jewish History Sourcebook: Bernard Lazare: Antisemitism, Its History and Causes, 1894 There is no antisemitism until the Jews, having abandoned their native land, settle as immigrants in foreign countries and come into contact with natives or older settlers, whose customs, race and religion are different from those of the Hebrews. We shall trace these modifications and variations of antisemitism through the course of ages down to our epoch; and we shall examine whether, in some countries at least, the general causes I have attempted to deduce are still operating, or whether the reasons for modern antisemitism must not be sought elsewhere. Still the Jew is only one of the factors of antisemitism; he provokes it by his presence, but he is not the only one that determines it. www.fordham.edu /halsall/jewish/lazare-anti.html   (744 words)

syllabus No previous knowledge of the Holocaust is required: The course assumes no prior knowledge of either Jewish history and Judaism, the history of antisemitism, or the Holocaust. This film paints a troubling picture of the United States during a period beset by antisemitism and a government overwhelmed by complex social and political factors. You see, the Holocaust, that extreme, and best-researched case of genocide, turns out to be also the arena for the most amazing examples of the other side of human capability, namely that of self-sacrifice for others, of our ability to stand up for moral values that we and our listeners will admire. www.u.arizona.edu /~shaked/Holocaust/syllabus.html   (496 words)

Food Not Bombs During this very month, the Muslim Brothers committed the worst anti-Jewish pogroms in all of Egypt´s history: The core of antisemitism had thus begun to shift from Germany to the Arab world. This antisemitism was enthusiastically adopted by Nazi-oriented organizations throughout the world who openly expressed joy at the destruction of the World Trade Center and the death of thousands of innocent civilians. The continuing significance of the Muslim Brotherhood for Islamism is comparable to the significance of the Bolshevik party for Communism in the 20th century: The Muslim Brotherhood is the organizational as well as the ideological core which successfully inspired all subsequent Islamist groups and tendencies. www.infoladen.de /koeln/fnb/antisem/kuentzel_engl.htm   (5147 words)

FrontPage magazine.com :: Eurabia and Euro-Arab Antisemitism by Bat Ye’or The EAD committees imposed on Europe the cult of Palestinity based on the demonization and delegitimization of Israel, whose usurped history and identity are projected onto the Palestinians. Arab and Islamic anti-Israeli propaganda, barely disguised in academic and cultural packaging, was disseminated by organs of the EAD operating under the highest State authorities and imposed in universities, the press, and cultural centers. Although the vast majority of Europeans today are not Antisemitic or anti-Israeli, they are immersed in a culture of demonization of Israel, fomented by a European political entity in which nearly everything that is written and said on the Middle East conveys this anti-Israeli mentality. www.frontpagemag.com /Articles/ReadArticle.asp?ID=12857   (2459 words)

PALESTINIAN RADICALISM AND ARAB ANTISEMITISM by Srdja Trifkovic The struggle for Palestine greatly facilitated the acceptance of the antisemitic interpretation of history, but even before Israel was created that struggle had turned into an existential battle of identity, with the complete denial of the legitimacy of Jewish existence as a central component of this campaign. When faced with concerns about antisemitism in the Arab media officials claim that is the price of a 'free' press-even in countries that have none. But while Israel's treatment of non-Jews, and Palestinian Arabs in particular, is discriminatory and even racist, the darkly psychotic hatred of the Arab-as-such-the hatred that leads to literal genocide is mercifully confined to a fanatical fringe (more often imported from Brooklyn than born in Israel). www.chroniclesmagazine.org /News/Trifkovic/NewsST061702.html   (8575 words)

The Peace Encyclopedia: Anti-Zionism, Anti-Zionists Anti- Zionism is the hatred of the Jews ( antisemitism) as expressed through (or masquerading as) hatred of, or bias against, the Jewish homeland, Israel. Anti- Zionism is the conviction that Israel, of all the world's countries, does not have the right to exist. The movement calls to distinguish between Judaism and Zionism, but at the same time reinforces its anti- Zionism by reviving the ancient Islamic enmity toward the Jews, revealing that essentially there is no separation between anti- Zionism and anti-Semitism. www.yahoodi.com /peace/antizionism.html   (274 words)

Jewish History Sourcebook: Bernard Lazare: Antisemitism, Its History and Causes, 1894 To make the history of antisemitism complete, omitting none of the manifestations of this sentiment and following its divers phases and modifications, it is necessary to go into the history of Israel since its dispersion, or, more properly speaking, since the beginning of its expansion beyond the boundaries of Palestine. In some countries, as e.g., in Spain, their history is in so high a degree interlinked with that of the peninsula, that, without them it is impossible to grasp and appreciate the development of the Spanish people. All through history we see the conquered peoples submit to the laws of the conqueror, though they may guard their own faith and beliefs. www.fordham.edu /halsall/jewish/lazare-anti.html   (17355 words)

Australian Memories Of The Holocaust The new, pseudo-scientific doctrine of racial antisemitism drew on all these stereotypes and formulated a view of history as the struggle for racial supremacy between Jews and Aryans. It later came into general use as a term referring to most forms of anti-Jewish hostility throughout history. “Attacks and explusions of Jews were a staple of medieval history, so extensive that by the mid-1500s Christians had forcibly emptied most of western Europe of Jews.” (Goldhagen, 1996) www.holocaust.com.au /jn/antisemitism.htm   (552 words)

Globalisation, anti-Zionism and the New Antisemitism It is difficult for westerners, unmarked by the searing memories of Jewish history, to realize the extent to which the survival of Israel remains an issue for Jews, who cannot dismiss the overheated Arab rhetoric that seeks to justify terrorism against innocent civilians by describing Israel's existence as illegitimate. For the first time in its history, the state of Israel convened an international conference of Jewish leaders from around the world with the explicit objective of coordinating a strategy to confront the resurgence of anti-Semitism. IN THE ARAB WORLD, Zionism is portrayed not as the Jewish response to a history of anti-Semitism in a world that culminated in the Holocaust but as a hyperaggressive variant of colonialism. www.aijac.org.au /updates/Oct-03/311003.html   (552 words)
