La experiencia del Mal Radical en la obra de Jorge Semprún = The experience of Radical Evil in the works of Jorge Semprún
2017
<p align="JUSTIFY"><span style="font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Este artículo pretende realizar un análisis de las novelas sobre los campos de concentración del escritor Jorge Semprún. Partiendo de la dicotomía escribir o vivir como un estado psicológico del autor tras su liberación, se reflexionará sobre las posibilidades de la literatura y del artificio como transmisores capaces de hacer entender la experiencia concentracionaria. Finalmente, se analizará el concepto filosófico del Mal Radical, señalado por Semprún como un elemento clave para entender dicha experiencia.</span></span></p><p align="JUSTIFY"><sp…
Gustav Radbruchs Denken und dessen Rolle beim Wiederaufbau des Rechtstaats und der Demokratie in Deutschland nach 1945
2014
Auf welchen Grundlagen konnte ein demokratischer Rechtsstaat auf den Trümmern des totalitären Regimes wiederaufgebaut werden? Nach 1945 konnte das Denken des Juristen Gustav Radbruch Anknüpfungspunkte dafür bieten. Einerseits wirkte Radbruch in der Tat am Wiederaufbau des Rechtsstaats mit, indem es das theoretische Rüstzeug für die juristische Aufarbeitung der in der NS-Zeit begangenen Verbrechen lieferte; andererseits hat aber seine These, der Positivismus sei für das Versagen der Justiz im Dritten Reich verantwortlich, auch zur Entlastung des Juristenstandes und zu einer ambivalenten Naturrechtsrenaissance beigetragen. Demgegenüber wurde Radbruchs demokratisches Denken eher wenig rezipier…
Images de l'extreme, récits dans l'histoire. L'expérience des camps en littérature et en cinéma
2011
Tout en restant fidèles a la lettre et aux événements racontés dans leurs mémoires, les récits de Vrba et de Müller tels qu'ils ont été filmés et montés par Lanzmann dans Shoah s'enrichissent d'une série de recours qui proviennent du domaine de la fiction: une dramaturgie du témoignage, l'imposition d'un ordre séquentiel visant a l'efficacité narrative, le montage des voix avec des images des lieux parcourus par la caméra, une dispositio préparant l'explosion du climax ... A la fin de ce parcours, les acteurs - car ils le sont même s'ils incarnent leurs person nages d'autrefois -, assument l'impératif de témoigner: pour Müller, une mystique, pour Vrba, un besoin urgent auprès des Alliés. L…
100 Jahre Zeitschrift für Orthopädie
2008
The article affords insight into the one hundred years' history of the Journal of Orthopedics. The existing 130 volumes reflect the change in the orthopedic spectrum of illness, diagnostic investigation and treatment. Already in its first few years of existence, the journal was a forum for international exchange. Investigation of various epochs showed that the editors applied strict scientific standards in selecting the publication, despite basis changing historical conditions. They were able to prevent political interventions appreciably influencing the character of the journal. At the same time, the negative effects which the two world wars and National Socialism had on the further develo…
Făgăraș as Jerusalem? Interethnic and interreligious ethos in Transylvania
2017
The study presents Transylvania as a space of ethnic-religious tolerance, having as a case studythe image of the town Făgăraș, as depicted in Eginald Schlattner’s novels. This space appearsas one of a heavenly nuance, based on a long tradition of coexistence of the members ofdifferent ethnic groups and religions. However, the inter-war and post-war period means theemergence of new challenges posed by the confrontation with the harmful effects of the twoideologies: Nazism and Communism. In this way, the dramas of the socio-historical contextinterweave with elements forming young Eginald. They will remain a constant in the writer’slife, offering Făgăraș the role of a forming educational array…
The German Fascists: Nazi Political Culture
2019
The rise to power of National Socialism in early 1933 made Germany become the second fascist regime and seemingly confirm fascism’s universal character. In this text, Morant examines Nazism as the German exponent of the fascist political culture by focusing both on the most characteristic elements of its world view (anti-Semitism, the myth of the Volksgemeinschaft, its nature as a political religion and its totalitarian ambitions) and the visible representations of a movement that paid special attention to future generations and did not neglect (non-Jew) women, since they constituted at least half of the “national community”. Many of these elements distinguish Nazism from its reactionary na…
The Society for the Protection of Science and Learning as a patron of refugee mathematicians
2015
The Society for the Protection of Science and Learning (SPSL, which started out as the Academic Assistance Council (AAC) 1933–36) distinguished itself from many other aid organizations set up in response to Nazi policies towards Jews and political dissidents in its focus on academic excellence as a criterion for support. Its archives are deposited in the Bodleian Library. Today, the organization is known as the Council for At-Risk Academics (CARA, http://www.cara1933.org/).In the archives of the SPSL, there are files on two and a half thousand scientists, victims of persecution in their home countries, who appealed to the Society for assistance in finding refuge and work in Britain. Almost …
La tetra notte della ragione. L'ossessione della sicurezza, l'onda lunga del razzismo e il riemergere del nazifascismo in Europa
2018
La criminalizzazione delle migrazioni, oltre a rivelarsi funzionale al mantenimento della disuguaglianza giuridica, politica e sociale degli immigrati, precondizione per il controllo e lo sfruttamento della mobilità umana straniera in modo coerente per gli attuali assetti dell’economia capitalistica, è anche una modalità per distogliere l’attenzione dell’opinione pubblica da tutti i problemi generati dal neoliberismo mondiale, e il razzismo diviene al contempo ideologia che legittima tale discriminazione e valvola di sfogo del malessere sociale ed economico indirizzato verso un nuovo capro espiatorio, come già successo in passato nella storia d’Europa. L’ossessione per la sicurezza si rivel…
La negazione dell'anti-popolo: Der ewige Jude di Fritz Hippler
2017
This paper focuses on a Nazi propaganda's film, Der ewige Jude, directed by F. Hippler. The movie is a classic of anti-Semitism but the idea of eternal Jew and his opposition to the Aryan people least breaks out of a discrepancy. For Nazi ideology Jew is not being a people, not being a form. Truly, it is an anti-people, all but an not being, it is shapeless. But the cinema produces images, insofar as this is a shape; so, what Nazism recognizes to His own people, and denies it to Jew, the form as such, the movie attributes it to him.
