Fenomenología, excedencia y horizonte teológico

Autor: Roberto J. Walton

Número de Páginas: 381

Esta obra constituye un aporte decisivo para los estudios fenomenológicos. Luego de la publicación de la trilogía compuesta por los libros Intencionalidad y horizonticidad, Horizonticidad e Historicidad, e Historia y Metahistoria –en los que evidencia su profundo conocimiento de la obra de Husserl y de la tradición fenomenológica, así como su erudición filosófica– Roberto Walton indaga en las posibilidades de la fenomenología en torno al despliegue de un horizonte teológico. Con este objetivo, el texto se detiene de modo sugerente y riguroso en los orígenes y en los desarrollos más actuales de cuestiones y nociones fundamentales tales como la interacción de lo humano y lo divino; el acontecimiento; el don, la revelación; y la reflexión sobre la Trinidad a partir de una consideración de la relación entre fenomenología y metafísica, que procuran dar cuenta de las diversas aristas de cierta excedencia propia de la intencionalidad de horizonte presente en toda conciencia de objeto. El tema de la excedencia opera como la base y la motivación que le permite a Walton explorar una fenomenología que “avanza más allá de lo dado en la intuición según las...

Being Unfolded

Autor: Thomas Gricoski , William Desmond

Número de Páginas: 294

Being Unfolded responds to the question, ‘What is the meaning of being for Edith Stein.’ In Finite and Eternal Being Stein tentatively concludes that ‘being is the unfolding of meaning.’ Neither Stein nor her commentators have elaborated much on this suggestive phrase. Thomas Gricoski argues that Stein’s mature metaphysical project can be developed into an ‘ontology of unfolding.’ The differentiating factor of this ontology is its resistance to both existentialism and essentialism. The ‘ontology of unfolding’ is irreducibly relational. Being Unfolded proceeds by testing a relational hypothesis against Stein’s theory of the modes of being (actual, essential, and mental being). From the phenomenological perspective, Gricoski examines Stein’s theory of the relation of consciousness and being. From the scholastic perspective, he examines Stein’s account of the relation of essence and existence in material being, living being, and human being. And from both perspectives he considers the relation of divine being to actual being and their essences. This book is limited to Stein’s theory of the meaning of being, without making an explicit confrontation with...

Hedwig Conrad-Martius

Autor: Ronny Miron

Número de Páginas: 489

This volume, the first of its kind written in English, interprets the realistic-phenomenological philosophy of Hedwig Conrad-Martius (1888-1966). She was a prominent figure in the Munich-Göttingen Circle, the first generation of phenomenology after Edmund Husserl (1859-1938), and was known as the “first lady of German philosophy”.The articles included in this collection deal with the two main themes constituting her realistic-metaphysical phenomenology: Being and the I. The new edition includes an additional chapter opening a new path into the study of Conrad-Martius with Heidegger. In addition, the collection includes a comprehensive Introduction that describes the personal background and the social and philosophical contexts behind Conrad-Martius’s thought, with an emphasis on the mutual influence and fertilization of the group of early phenomenologists in the Munich-Göttingen Circle. The book is aimed at scholars of philosophy and educated readers.

The Existential Husserl

Autor: Marco Cavallaro , George Heffernan

Número de Páginas: 367

This book examines Husserl’s approach to the question concerning meaning in life and demonstrates that his philosophy includes a phenomenology of existence. Given his critique of the fashionable “philosophy of existence” of the late 1920s and early 1930s, one might think that Husserl posited an opposition between transcendental phenomenology and existential philosophy, as well as that in this respect he differed from existential phenomenologists after him. But texts composed between 1908 and 1937 and recently published in Husserliana XLII, Grenzprobleme der Phänomenologie (2014), show that the existential Husserl was not opposed but open to the phenomenological investigation of several basic topics of a philosophy of existence. A collection of contributions from a team of internationally recognized scholars drawing on these and other sources, the present volume offers insights into the relationship between phenomenology and philosophy of existence. It does so by (1) delineating the basic outlines of Husserl’s phenomenology of existence, (2) reinterpreting the tension between Husserl’s transcendental phenomenology and Jaspers’s and Heidegger’s philosophy of existence ...

Empathy, Sociality, and Personhood

Autor: Elisa Magrì , Dermot Moran

Número de Páginas: 215

This book explores the phenomenological investigations of Edith Stein by critically contextualising her role within the phenomenological movement and assessing her accounts of empathy, sociality, and personhood. Despite the growing interest that surrounds contemporary research on empathy, Edith Stein’s phenomenological investigations have been largely neglected due to a historical tradition that tends to consider her either as Husserl’s assistant or as a martyr. However, in her phenomenological research, Edith Stein pursued critically the relation between phenomenology and psychology, focusing on the relation between affectivity, subjectivity, and personhood. Alongside phenomenologists like Max Scheler, Kurt Stavenhagen, and Hedwig Conrad-Martius, Stein developed Husserl’s method, incorporating several original modifications that are relevant for philosophy, phenomenology, and ethics. Drawing on recent debates on empathy, emotions, and collective intentionality as well as on original inquiries and interpretations, the collection articulates and develops new perspectives regarding Edith Stein’s phenomenology. The volume includes an appraisal of Stein’s philosophical...

Heidegger's Eschatology

Autor: Judith Wolfe

Número de Páginas: 194

Heidegger's Eschatology is a ground-breaking account of Heidegger's early engagement with theology, from his beginnings as an anti-Modernist Catholic to his turn towards an undogmatic Protestantism and finally to a resolutely a-theistic philosophical method. The book centres on Heidegger's developing commitment to an eschatological vision, derived from theological sources but reshaped into a central resource for the development of an atheistic phenomenological account of human existence. This vision originated in Heidegger's attempt, in the late 1910s, to formulate a phenomenology of religious life that would take seriously the inherent temporality of human existence. In this endeavour, Heidegger turned to two trends in Protestant scholarship: the discovery of eschatology as a central preoccupation of the Early Church by A. Schweitzer and the 'History of Doctrine' School, and the 'existential' eschatology of Karl Barth and Eduard Thurneysen, indebted to Kierkegaard, Dostoevsky, and Franz Overbeck. His synthesis of such trends within a phenomenological framework (elaborated primarily via readings of Paul and Augustine in his lecture courses of 1921-2) led Heidegger to postulate an...

Edith Stein: Women, Social-Political Philosophy, Theology, Metaphysics and Public History

Autor: Antonio Calcagno

Número de Páginas: 281

This volume explores the work and thought of Edith Stein (1891–1942). It discusses in detail, and from new perspectives, the traditional areas of her thinking, including her ideas about women/feminism, theology, and metaphysics. In addition, it introduces readers to new and/or understudied areas of her thought, including her views on history, and her social and political philosophy. The guiding thread that connects all the essays in this book is the emphasis on new approaches and novel applications of her philosophy. The contributions both extend the interdisciplinary implications of Stein’s thinking for our contemporary world and apply her insights to questions of theatre, public history and biographical representation, education, politics, autism, theological debates, feminism, sexuality studies and literature. The volume brings together for the first time leading scholars in five language-groups, including English, German, Italian, French and Spanish-speaking authors, thereby reflecting an international and cosmopolitan approach to Stein studies.

On the Ethical Philosophy of Edith Stein

Autor: William E. Tullius

Número de Páginas: 261

Although she never penned a text dedicated exclusively to ethics, Edith Stein’s work encompasses an implicit, but self-consciously developed, moral philosophy not yet sufficiently developed in the current English-language literature. However, comparison of Stein’s anthropological and metaphysical theories against the ethical philosophy of other early phenomenological thinkers, such as Max Scheler and Edmund Husserl, reveals lines of moral theory woven throughout her texts. In On the Ethical Philosophy of Edith Stein: Outlines of Morality, William E. Tullius endeavors to present a systematic account of Stein’s moral thought as it takes shape in conversation with neo-scholasticism and develops across her corpus in conversation with her philosophical anthropology, axiological theory, and metaphysics. The ethics which emerge from these sources is oriented around the moral project of the development of personality through the unfolding of one’s personal core and which entails a call to the development of an ethical community reflective of and oriented by its responsiveness to the highest values and to the communal destiny of all humanity in God

Deus ineffabilis

Autor: Carlos Mendoza Álvarez

Número de Páginas: 394

Dios es inefable. Aprender a invocarlo con esperanza, en medio de los escombros de la sociedad posmoderna, es el objetivo de este libro. En tiempos en que la violencia sistémica recorre la aldea global, la pregunta por la posibilidad de la esperanza se vuelve aún más radical. Este es el tema central de Deus ineffabilis, cuyo fondo teológico encuentra interlocuciones con la antropología y la filosofía de la historia en pensadores del mundo occidental, desde Hegel y Benjamin hasta Heidegger, Girard y Agamben. Sin embargo, esta problemática adquiere matices sorprendentes cuando es analizada desde el Sur, con el pensamiento político antisistémico y el decolonialismo que surge de la potencia de los pobres de la tierra. La esperanza es una apuesta vital e intelectual, ética y mística a la vez. Una virtud del fin de los tiempos que vivimos hoy, urgente no solo para los creyentes de cualquier tradición religiosa o sabiduría espiritual, sino para cualquier ser humano que anhela un mañana para todos. La última y universal esperanza de liberación solo es posible cuando la persona se sabe "incondicionalmente amada por esa alteridad inefable a la que llamamos Dios". Aprender a...

El nazismo y el tercer Reich

Autor: José Benajmin, Rodríguez Iturbe

Número de Páginas: 664

La intención de estas páginas, que nacieron de lecciones universitarias, es contribuir a completar la visión de un tiempo oscuro, lleno de sórdida tragedia humana, como el representado por la toma del poder por Adolf Hitler y el nacional-socialismo alemán. Historias detalladas sobre personas y sucesos de ese tiempo abundan, pero siempre pueden darse aportes complementarios que pongan de relieve la crisis de la modernidad que los totalitarismos (en este caso, el nazi) representan. A partir de la premisa de que la academia no solo debe ocuparse del pasado trágico en sí, sino procurar que su trabajo contribuya a evitar que lo antihumano tenga posibilidad de reaparecer o de que la edulcorada visión de los crímenes de ayer aporte no a su comprensión crítica, sino a una indeseable y deformante justificación, se hace necesario el estudio de los totalitarismos. El autor ha procurado dejar señalada la madeja más turbia del origen mítico-pagano, plagado de ocultismo, que en la Weltanschauung nacional-socialista terminó más en religión política que en planteamiento ideológico propiamente dicho.

Ser finito, ser eterno

Autor: Edith Stein

Número de Páginas: 417

Este ensayo lleva la impronta del extraordinario viaje intelectual y espiritual de su autora, una de las mujeres más notables del siglo XX. Nacida en Alemania en el seno de una familia judía practicante, Edith Stein abandonó su fe siendo adolescente y más tarde se convirtió en una figura clave entre los primeros discípulos de Edmund Husserl, fundador de la fenomenología. Experimentó una profunda conversión y se bautizó en la Iglesia católica. Refundió a fondo un ensayo anterior, Potencia y acto, para producir el presente texto, que permanecía inédito en el momento de su muerte en 1942 a manos de los nazis. Ser finito, ser eterno es la principal obra filosófica de Stein, un diálogo entre Husserl y santo Tomás de Aquino que se extiende a Platón, Aristóteles, san Agustín, Duns Escoto, etc. Un breve texto de Stein resume el nervio que recorre esta obra: «Porque al hecho innegable de que mi ser es fugaz, que se mantiene de momento en momento y que está expuesto a la posibilidad de no ser, le corresponde otro hecho igualmente innegable, que, a pesar de esta fugacidad, soy y soy mantenido en el ser de momento en momento, y en mi ser fugaz abrazo un ser que perdura».

Éveille-toi, mon âme

Autor: Bénédicte Bouillot , Christof Betschart

Número de Páginas: 226

Si Edith Stein est aujourd'hui connue pour son parcours exceptionnel d'intellectuelle allemande, née juive, devenue chrétienne et carmélite, morte à Auschwitz, ce livre entend combler un manque : celui d'une introduction générale à sa philosophie, et relever un double défi : rendre abordable une pensée réputée difficile, tout en montrant sa vigueur et son actualité, à travers l'approche renouvelée qu'elle propose de la notion d'âme.Dans un xxe siècle où l'âme a été considérée comme une notion désuète, inappropriée même pour penser l'humain, où la philosophie, les sciences humaines, et la théologie ont cru pouvoir s'en passer, Edith Stein montre au contraire que renoncer à l'âme, c'est s'empêcher de considérer certains aspects fondamentaux de la vie humaine.À travers une démarche qui allie phénoménologie, métaphysique et mystique, et par ses talents descriptifs, elle nous rend attentifs à l'expérience vécue de l'âme, mais aussi au tragique d'une vie qui en est dénuée. Elle réveille ainsi en nous le désir de ce « supplément d'âme », qui donne à notre existence sa profondeur, sa vitalité, sa couleur et sa saveur... telle l'âme du...

Church of the Ever Greater God

Autor: Aaron Pidel, S.j.

Número de Páginas: 395

In Church of the Ever Greater God, Aaron Pidel offers the first major English-language study of the ecclesiology of Erich Przywara, S.J., one of the most important Catholic theologians of the twentieth century. As Pidel shows, Przywara’s idea of analogia entis, or analogy of being, shaped his view of ecclesiology. According to this theory, every creature is made of various tensions or polarities in its being. Creatures flourish when these tensions are in equilibrium but transgress their creaturely limits when they absolutize one polarity over the other. Pidel demonstrates how Przywara used the concept of analogia entis to describe the structure and rhythm of the Catholic Church. In Przywara’s view, the Church, too, is essentially constituted by her tensions or polarities, and the members of the Church conform to that analogical tension to varying degrees of fidelity. Przywara claims that analogia entis not only describes the Church as she is but also can be used as a criterion for discerning the spiritual health of the Church by helping her to see where her equilibrium has become imbalanced. Pidel maintains that Przywara thought that the biggest risk to the Church’s...

The Ontological Roots of Phenomenology

Autor: Anna Varga-jani

Número de Páginas: 267

In The Ontological Roots of Phenomenology: Rethinking the History of Phenomenology and Its Religious Turn, Anna Jani examines the common methodological background of phenomenology. Through attention to the phenomenon of being, the existential experience of religiosity can be phenomenologically described by the ontological difference between being and beings. Jani demonstrates that the methodological inquiries connect closely with the ontological source of phenomenology. First, she elaborates on the contributions of Hedwig Conrad-Martius, Roman Ingarden, and Edith Stein from the point of view of Heidegger’s influence on the early phenomenologists from Husserl’s students. Second, she analyzes Heidegger’s reinterpretation of his own earlier thinking after the “turn,” which is formulated in the idea of the “new beginning of philosophical thinking” in the Contributions to Philosophy. In the context of clarifying the difference between being and beings, her third hypothesis about Ricœur’s critique of Heidegger reveals an ethical level. The primordiality of the ethical dimension of the action reveals the ontological foundation of the hermeneutical-phenomenological...

Revue Christus : S'abandonner

Autor: Collectif Auteur

Número de Páginas: 136

Christus, la revue de formation spirituelle Ignatienne, a publié durant le confinement un numéro sur le thème de l’abandon spirituel. La revue est disponible en librairie et sur le site www.revue-christus.com depuis le mois de juillet 2020. S'abandonner ce n'est pas devenir inerte comme une pierre et fuir toute préoccupation. S’abandonner c'est devenir actif d'une autre manière pour recevoir davantage de Dieu. Saint Ignace a vécu ce cheminement pour être actif abandonné et par là entrer en relation dialoguante avec le Seigneur et croître en amour. Mais il n'est qu'un parmi bien d'autres croyants des siècles passés ou d'aujourd'hui. Toutefois son expérience a permis à Ignace de proposer cette manière d'être à d’autres. Ce numéro 267 s’adresse à tous, car tout le monde est un jour susceptible de vivre un abandon. Il donne la réponse à la question : comment surmonter, et accepter l’abandon, qu’elle qu’en soit la nature ?

Heidegger and Theology

Autor: Judith Wolfe

Número de Páginas: 251

Martin Heidegger is the 20th century theology philosopher with the greatest importance to theology. A cradle Catholic originally intended for the priesthood, Heidegger's studies in philosophy led him to turn first to Protestantism and then to an atheistic philosophical method. Nevertheless, his writings remained deeply indebted to theological themes and sources, and the question of the nature of his relationship with theology has been a subject of discussion ever since. This book offers theologians and philosophers alike a clear account of the directions and the potential of this debate. It explains Heidegger's key ideas, describes their development and analyses the role of theology in his major writings, including his lectures during the National Socialist era. It reviews the reception of Heidegger's thought both by theologians in his own day (particularly in Barth and his school as well as neo-Scholasticism) and more recently (particularly in French phenomenology), and concludes by offering directions for theology's possible future engagement with Heidegger's work.

Vertigo

Autor: Andrea Cavalletti

Número de Páginas: 219

Reading philosophy through the lens of Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo, Andrea Cavalletti shows why, for two centuries, major philosophers have come to think of vertigo as intrinsically part of philosophy itself. Fear of the void, terror of heights: everyone knows what acrophobia is, and many suffer from it. Before Freud, the so-called “sciences of the mind” reserved a place of honor for vertigo in the domain of mental pathologies. The fear of falling—which is also the fear of giving in to the temptation to let oneself fall—has long been understood as a destabilizing yet intoxicating element without which consciousness itself was inconceivable. Some went so far as to induce it in patients through frightening rotational therapies. In a less cruel but no less radical way, vertigo also staked its claim in philosophy. If Montaigne and Pascal could still consider it a perturbation of reason and a trick of the imagination which had to be subdued, subsequent thinkers stopped considering it an occasional imaginative instability to be overcome. It came, rather, to be seen as intrinsic to reason, such that identity manifests itself as tottering, kinetic, opaque and, indeed,...

Edith Stein's Finite and Eternal Being

Autor: Sarah Borden Sharkey

Número de Páginas: 253

There are few topics more central to philosophical discussions than the meaning of being, and few thinkers offer a more compelling and original vision of that meaning than Edith Stein (1891–1942). Stein’s magnum opus, drawing from her decades working with the early phenomenologists and intense years as a student and translator of medieval texts, lays out a grand vision, bringing together phenomenological and scholastic insights into an integrated whole. The sheer scope of Stein’s project in Finite and Eternal Being is daunting, and the text can be challenging to navigate. In this book, Sarah Borden Sharkey provides a guide to Stein’s great final philosophical work and intellectual vision. The opening essays give an overview of Stein’s method and argument, and they place Finite and Eternal Being both within its historical context and in relation to contemporary discussions. The author also provides clear, detailed summaries of each section of Stein’s opus, drawing from the latest scholarship on Stein’s manuscript. Edith Stein’s Finite and Eternal Being: A Companion offers a unique guide, opening up Stein’s grand cathedral-like vision of the meaning of being as the ...

Santa Teresa

Autor: Dr. Martina Bengert , Iris Roebling-grau

Número de Páginas: 362

Even prior to her widely observed 500th anniversary, Teresa of Ávila (1515-1582) was already considered one of the most important authors of occidental mysticism. This volume gathers together contributions from a multitude of disciplines to explore the writings and reception of the Spanish author and saint. Previously disregarded lines of tradition are explored for a new understanding of her oeuvre, which is examined here with special regard to the potential to affect its readers. Teresa proves to not only be an accomplished, but also a very literary writer. Santa Teresa proves to be a figure of cultural memory, and the diffusion of her thinking is traced up to the present, whereby a recurrent focus is put on the phenomenon of ecstasy. Part of the widespread resonance of her work is the image of the iconic saint whose emergence as an international phenomenon is presented here for the first time. The volume is closed by an interview with Marina Abramovi answering four questions about Teresa.

Women Phenomenologists on Social Ontology

Autor: Sebastian Luft , Ruth Hagengruber

Número de Páginas: 252

This edited volume examines women's voices in phenomenology, many of which had a formative impact on the movement but have be kept relatively silent for many years. It features papers that truly extend the canonical scope of phenomenological research. Readers will discover the rich philosophical output of such scholars as Edith Stein, Hedwig Conrad-Martius, and Gerda Walther. They will also come to see how the phenomenological movement allowed its female proponents to achieve a position in the academic world few women could enjoy at the time. The book explores the intersection of social ontology, phenomenology, and women scholars in phenomenology. The papers offer a fresh look at such topics as the nature of communities, shared values, feelings, and other mental content. In addition, coverage examines the contributions of Jewish women to the science, who were present at the beginning of the phenomenological movement. This remarkable anthology also features a paper on Gerda Walther written by Linda Lopez McAlister, former editor of the feminist journal Hypatia, who had met Walther in 1976. This book features work from the conference “Women Phenomenologists on Social Ontology,”...

Christ the Logos of Creation: An Essay in Analogical Metaphysics

Autor: John R. Betz

Número de Páginas: 672

The Prologue of the Gospel of John identifies Jesus Christ as the eternal Word or Logos of the Father, who became flesh for the salvation of the world. Yet the world that Christ saves is his world from the beginning, for he is also the Logos of creation, the one “through whom all things were made” (John 1:3). This divinely revealed claim has profound implications not only for theology but also for metaphysics, whose relation to Christian doctrine was undermined over the course of the twentieth century, such that the Christian faith has become an increasingly private affair rather than a credible account of reality and an invitation to participate more fully in it. With Christ, the Logos of Creation, John Betz seeks to recover a Christ-centered, analogical metaphysics and to establish the indispensability of such metaphysics for Christian theology and the Christian vision of reality. In Part I, he dispels the fog of confusion about analogical metaphysics and addresses the ecumenical issues posed by Karl Barth’s famous rejection of the analogia entis. Part II demonstrates how analogical metaphysics helps to explain Christian doctrine and sheds new light on the...

The Routledge Handbook of Phenomenology and Phenomenological Philosophy

Autor: Daniele De Santis , Burt C. Hopkins , Claudio Majolino

Número de Páginas: 841

Phenomenology was one of the twentieth century’s major philosophical movements, and it continues to be a vibrant and widely studied subject today with relevance beyond philosophy in areas such as medicine and cognitive sciences. The Routledge Handbook of Phenomenology and Phenomenological Philosophy is an outstanding guide to this important and fascinating topic. Its focus on phenomenology’s historical and systematic dimensions makes it a unique and valuable reference source. Moreover, its innovative approach includes entries that don’t simply reflect the state-of-the-art but in many cases advance it. Comprising seventy-five chapters by a team of international contributors, the Handbook offers unparalleled coverage and discussion of the subject, and is divided into five clear parts: • Phenomenology and the history of philosophy • Issues and concepts in phenomenology • Major figures in phenomenology • Intersections • Phenomenology in the world.

Edith Stein

Número de Páginas: 587

Vida, obra (y muerte) de una mujer extraordinaria, comprometida íntegramente consigo misma y con su época. Un retrato del siglo XX que interpela los debates sobre identidad del XXI. Edith Stein recorrió un sinuoso camino de búsqueda que la llevó del judaísmo al agnosticismo, a la filosofía, al catolicismo y que concluyó en el infierno de los campos de concentración nazis. Nacida en Polonia en 1891, fue la primera mujer en doctorarse en Filosofía en Alemania y perteneció al círculo íntimo de Edmund Husserl, padre de la Fenomenología. Temprana feminista, en 1921 su vida dio un vuelco místico y se convirtió al catolicismo para ingresar en la orden carmelita como Teresa Benedicta de la Cruz. Canceladas sus expectativas de emigración, fue detenida por la Gestapo en 1942 y deportada a Auschwitz, donde fue asesinada. En 1998 el papa Juan Pablo II la canoniza. La ambiciosa investigación de Irene Chikiar Bauer propone, bajo una luz inédita, un recorrido por los escritos autobiográficos de esta mujer personalísima, sus textos filosóficos y religiosos y su extensa correspondencia, y reconstruye tanto sus resbaladizos contextos de producción como las preocupaciones...

Sich selbst verstehen

Autor: Sabine Zwierlein-rockenfeller

Número de Páginas: 276

Die Erkenntnistheorie der Innenwelt ist eine Theorie des Verstehens von erlebten Leben aus der Perspektive der ersten Person. Sie integriert die Erfahrung des Anderen, des Leibes und der Sprache und unternimmt den Versuch, sich selbst zu verstehen, als ein Seins- und Denkabenteuer, das durch phänomenologische, hermeneutische und existenzielle sowie literarisch-narrative Verfahren zu erschließen ist. Paul Ludwig Landsberg, der bedeutendste Schüler Max Schelers, konnte, verfolgt von den Nationalsozialisten, nur Fragmente einer Skizze der Erkenntnistheorie der Innenwelt vorlegen. Hier wird sie zum ersten Mal vollständig rekonstruiert und in systematischer Gestalt, klarer Form und durchsichtiger methodischer Begründung vorgelegt. In ihrem Zentrum steht eine Logik des Aufweises, die eine Philosophie der Wiederholung entfaltet.

Nazi Crimes against Jews and German Post-War Justice

Autor: Edith Raim

Número de Páginas: 322

Of all victims of Nazi persecution, German Jews had to suffer the Nazi yoke for the longest time. Throughout the Third Reich, they were exposed to anti-Jewish propaganda, discrimination, anti-Semitic laws and increasingly to outrages and offences by non-Jewish Germans. While the International Military Tribunal and the subsequent American Military Tribunals at Nuremberg dealt with a variety of Nazi crimes according to international law, these courts did not consider themselves cognizant in adjudicating wrongdoings against German citizens and those who lost German citizenship based on the so-called “Nuremberg laws,” such as Germany’s Jews. Until recently, scholarship failed to explore this task of the German judiciary in more detail. Edith Raim fills this gap by showing the extent of the crimes committed against Jews beyond the traditionally known facts and by elucidating how the West German administration of justice was reconstructed under Allied supervision.
