We are lucky enough to have a multitude of features that make us a global destination and the unofficial capital of the Mediterranean. In fact, I would like to hold a sort of G7 meeting, an informal gathering of all of the heads of the municipal districts bordering the Mediterranean, to discuss potential cooperation between us, particularly in respect of tourism. Montpellier is a destination that combines sea, sun, culture, history, wine, youth, traditions, back country and major tourist attractions. For all these reasons, we owe it to our visitors to offer them a unique, high quality experience. » Philippe SAUREL Mayor of Montpellier, President of Montpellier Méditerranée Métropole Montpellier, 11 km from the Mediterranean, is an ideal spot if you want discover a historical yet young city, rich in so many different resources and hidden treasures. A multifa- ceted land of the South, a city that embodies a mosaic of culture, wellness, and trade surrounded by some of the very finest natural World Heritage sites. Montpellier is the eighth largest city in France – an excep- tional destination brimming with character. Its stones tell MONTPELLIER its story – the story of a destiny that it has carved out for itself over the centuries and of the men and women wit- hout whom it would not have been possible.

  • Early Christian Teachings on Jews: a Necessary Cause of the Nazi
    SANZENBACHER, CAROLYN K., M.A., Early Christian Teachings on Jews: A Necessary Cause of the Antisemitism that Informed the Holocaust. (2010) Directed by Dr. Karl A. Schleunes, 215 pp. The idea that Christianity was related to the antisemitism that informed the Holocaust was widely resisted in the early years following WW II discovery of Nazi exterminations of Jews. Yet before the end of the Holocaust century the major bodies of Christianity had labeled traditional Christian attitudes toward Jews as the fuel for “fires of hatred,” declared the Church “sinful and in need of conversion,” and called for the Church to “submit her own history to critical examination.” By the turn of the millennium, formal confessions had not only been made throughout western Christendom for atrocities perpetrated against Jews historically but also for what was said to be a necessary causal relation between Christian teachings and the Nazi antisemitism that informed the Holocaust. In light of these admissions, and the growing scholarly consensus that it is no longer tenable to claim that Christian teachings on Jews are unrelated to the Holocaust, this study traces a triad of foundational teachings embodying the doctrines of Christian dominion, Jewish subservience, and perpetual Jewish suffering from their inception through the Third Reich. Not only were these teachings, along with their attendant ideas, terms, and concepts, the single most important weapon-group in early Christianity’s supersessionist arsenal, they were the means by which clusters of mutually dependent ideas about Jews were sealed with divine authority and delivered to modern western culture. The history of this complex development not only helps us to understand how ancient Christian theological claims became modern secular weapons to use against Jews in the twentieth century, it explains how the former can justly be called a necessary cause of the Holocaust some nineteen hundred years later.
