In the wake of a recent surge of antisemitism, we talk to historian David Nirenberg about what connects the hatred of Jews in the past and present. Anti-Judaism is more than simply a form of prejudice against a particular ethnicity. Rather, it is a foundational and essential idea in Western civilization which provides cultures with a way of thinking about the dangers of the world. As we connect the dots between past and present, how does thinking in the longue durée help us to move forward? And can an understanding of history lead us towards a better future? David Nirenberg, a distinguished historian of medieval Europe and the Mediterranean, is Director and Leon Levy Professor at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton University.
In dieser Folge präsentieren wir Ihnen einen Vortrag von Prof. David Nirenberg von der University of Chicago zum Thema „Islam and Judaism: The Past as Archive for the Future.“ In diesem setzt sich Nirenberg damit auseinander, welche Rolle Geschichte und Historiker in der Begegnung zwischen Islam und Judentum gespielt haben und weiterhin spielen können. Nirenbergs Ausführungen stellten den Eröffnungsvortrag der Konferenz „Juden und Muslime in Deutschland. Vom frühen 19. Jahrhundert bis heute“ vom 15. Januar 2020 dar. Die Konferenz wurde von der Abteilung für Jüdische Geschichte und Kultur an der LMU zusammen mit dem Leo Baeck Institut, der Bayerischen Akademie der Wissenschaften sowie dem Zentrum für Antisemitismusforschung der TU Berlin organisiert. Finanziell unterstützt wurde diese von der Fritz Thyssen Stiftung für Wissenschaftsförderung.

In the first episode of the Lantos Foundation's special Solidarity Sabbath podcast season, we take a deeper look at the origins and history of Anti-Semitism. It is often called “an ancient hatred” or “the oldest hatred”. We ask David Nirenberg, Dean of the University of Chicago Divinity School, just how far back does it really go? Why has it been so enduring across time, geography, religion, culture, politics – even in places where no actual Jews live? This episode provides context for what will be a special season devoted exclusively to the subject of anti-Semitism and how we can combat it.Links:Plot Against America trailerDefining Anti-SemitismA Brief History of Anti-Semitism (Anti-Defamation League)Viral trailer David NirenbergHow Anti-Semitism rise on the left and right (New Yorker)Seventy-five years after Auschwitz, anti-Semitism is on the rise (The Atlantic)
The Keeper podcast is back – this time with something new and a little different! Like so many other things, plans for the Lantos Foundation's annual religious freedom initiative – the Solidarity Sabbath – fell victim to the COVID-19 outbreak this year. The Solidarity Sabbath usually offers a chance to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with a persecuted or oppressed religious community. In a time of social distancing, we're standing virtually with the Jewish community all over the world as we bring you an entire season of The Keeper focused exclusively on anti-Semitism. The season will do a deep dive on this ancient hatred and will feature guests like Elan Carr, U.S. Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism, Yigal Carmon, President of the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), David Nirenberg, Dean of The University of Chicago Divinity School, and others. Episodes will be released beginning in late June – make sure to subscribe through iTunes or wherever you listen to your podcasts so you don't miss them.
Christianity has had a 1900+ year bad history with (rabbinic) Judaism, with devastating consequences for the lives of Jews and theological bankruptcy for Christians. We hone in on the problem within our own tradition by looking at Luther's contorted and confusing attitude to Jews—from being the first person in about 1000 years to propose toleration and speak well of them, to his famously horrific suggestions to drive them out, steal their books, and burn their synagogues. Yet Luther proves to be not unique but representative in his anti-Judaism, so we also address wider concerns such as the not-always-tenable difference between anti-Judaism and anti-Semitism, and to what extent the roots of Christian anti-Judaism lie in our Scripture, Old and New Testament alike. Romans chs. 9–11 guide us through this mare's nest of issues. Notes: 1. David Nirenberg, Anti-Judaism: The Western Tradition 2. The chief texts of Luther relevant to his Janus-like relationship with the Jews are: “That Jesus Christ Was Born a Jew” (1523; Luther’s Works vol. 45), “Against the Sabbatarians” (1539; Luther’s Works vol. 47), and “On the Jews and Their Lies” (1543; Luther’s Works vol. 47) 3. The book that popularly made the case in America for the direct lineage between Hitler and Luther was William L. Shirer’s The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. Uwe Siemon-Netto wrote a rebuttal to this claim in his The Fabricated Luther: Refuting Nazi Connections and Other Modern Myths. 4. My choice for the best place to examine this issue is in Thomas Kaufmann’s Luther’s Jews: A Journey into Anti-Semitism. Here's a review I wrote of it. 5. See Dad’s review of the excellent book by Peter Ochs, Another Reformation: Postliberal Christianity and the Jews in The Journal of Scriptural Reasoning 13/2 (2014) and in his book Beloved Community the “Excursus: on Jewish perplexity as a principle internal to Christology” on pp. 416–428. Also, check out his book Before Auschwitz, which analyzes various Christian theological positions regarding Jews and Judaism and how they were able to resist Nazi ideology or, conversely, fell right in step with it. 6. A few things I’ve written dealing with these issues: “Still Reckoning with Luther” in The Christian Century; commentary on Mark 12:28–34 for Working Preacher; my chapter “Tradition: A Lutheran Perspective” in the collection The Idea of Tradition in the Late Modern World; and a chapter in my ebook Luther, Thrice, available by signing up for the Theology & a Recipe newsletter on my website.
