- W1559474539 abstract "Levenson, Alan T. Between Philosemitism and Antisemitism: Defenses of Jews and Judaism in Germany, 1871-1952. Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press, 2004. 194 pp. $55.00 hardcover. With recent publication of highly controversial-and many say highly flawed -historical works like Paul Lawrence Rose's German Question/Jewish Question: Revolutionary Antisemitism from Kant to Wagner (1990) and especially Daniel Goldhagen's Hitler's Willing Executioners (1996), attempts have been made to demonstrate a virulent but latent antisemitism particular to German society before and during Shoah. Works like these seek to capitalize on undeniably substantial evidence that Jews and Jewish religion were widely maligned by non-Jewish Germans and, to some extent, even by German Jews themselves. More than twenty years earlier, historian Shmuel Ettinger, in his foreword to Uriel Tal's Christians and Jews in Germany: Religion, Politics, and Ideology in Second Reich, 1870-1914 (1975), summarized historical opinion on this topic which was to remain prevalent until today; Ettinger writes, the bulk of German society was either unwilling or unable to accept existence of Jews as a distinct entity with a group consciousness of its own (10). Alan T. Levenson sees his Between Philosemitism and Antisemitism as a corrective to what he deems flattening-out effect of approaches like Goldhagen's which disavow gradations between non-existent, latent, and overt antisemitism in Germany (ix). Focusing, like Tal, on period beginning with unification of German states in 1871, a year which also brought official emancipation of Germany's Jewry, Levenson shifts focus of his historical contextualization from antisemitism to philosemitism. In doing so, author turns a critical eye on those parties who worked at edges or outside of Tal's societal majority, people who promoted Jewish identities in Germany (Levenson's philosemites), or, at least acted against those who would vilify that identity (Levenson's anti-antisemites). Between Philosemitism and Antisemitism, drawing heavily-but not completely-from Levenson's previously published works on philosemitism, gathers a significant amount of material on this relatively underresearched topic into one volume. Levenson in no way wishes to chart out a philosemitic tradition or movement in Germany, because, he claims, German philosemitism in Second Reich and Weimar Republic never existed in such a systematic form (144); instead, author seeks to provide evidence of philosemitic behavior wherever and however it may have occurred. …" @default.
