[‘95] 9 8 7 PREFACE Sometime in the second half of 1944, as the war in Europe drew to a close, Jean-Paul Sartre noticed that in discussions about postwar France, the imminent return of French Jews deported by the Nazis was never men­ tioned. Some of the speakers, he guessed, were not pleased by the prospect; others, friends of the Jews, thought it best to he silent. (Neither they nor Sartre knew how many of the deported Jews would never return.) Thinking about these discussions, Sartre decided to write a critique of anti-Semitism. Both the occasion and the subject of the critique were French.

  • Buddhism and Medicine in Tibet: Origins, Ethics, and Tradition
    Buddhism and Medicine in Tibet: Origins, Ethics, and Tradition William A. McGrath Herndon, Virginia B.Sc., University of Virginia, 2007 M.A., University of Virginia, 2015 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Religious Studies University of Virginia May, 2017 Abstract This dissertation claims that the turn of the fourteenth century marks a previously unrecognized period of intellectual unification and standardization in the Tibetan medical tradition. Prior to this time, approaches to healing in Tibet were fragmented, variegated, and incommensurable—an intellectual environment in which lineages of tantric diviners and scholarly literati came to both influence and compete with the schools of clinical physicians. Careful engagement with recently published manuscripts reveals that centuries of translation, assimilation, and intellectual development culminated in the unification of these lineages in the seminal work of the Tibetan tradition, the Four Tantras, by the end of the thirteenth century. The Drangti family of physicians—having adopted the Four Tantras and its corpus of supplementary literature from the Yutok school—established a curriculum for their dissemination at Sakya monastery, redacting the Four Tantras as a scripture distinct from the Eighteen Partial Branches addenda. Primarily focusing on the literary contributions made by the Drangti family at the Sakya Medical House, the present dissertation demonstrates the process

  • The Social Life of Slurs
    The Social Life of Slurs Geoff Nunberg School of Information, UC Berkeley Jan. 22, 2016 To appear in Daniel Fogal, Daniel Harris, and Matt Moss (eds.) (2017): New Work on Speech Acts (Oxford, UK: Oxford University Press). Chaque mot a son histoire. —Jules Gilliéron A Philological Caution The Emergence of Slurs We wear two hats when we talk about slurs, as engaged citizens and as scholars of language. The words had very little theoretical interest for philosophy or linguistic semantics before they took on a symbolic role in the culture wars that broke out in and around the academy in the 1980s.1 But once scholars’ attention was drawn to the topic, they began to discern connections to familiar problems in meta-ethics, semantics, and the philosophy of language. The apparent dual nature of the words—they seem both to describe and to evaluate or express— seemed to make them an excellent test bed for investigations of non-truth-conditional aspects of meaning, of certain types of moral language, of Fregean “coloring,” and of hybrid or “thick” terms, among other things. There are some writers who take slurs purely as a topical jumping-off point for addressing those issues and don’t make any explicit effort to bring their discussions back to the social questions that drew scholars’ attention to the words in the first place. But most seem to feel that their research ought to have some significance beyond the confines of the common room. That double perspective can leave us a little wall-eyed, as we try to track slurs as both a social and linguistic phenomenon.

  • Eugenics and Racial Anthropology in the Ukrainian Radical Nationalist Tradition
    Science in Context (2019), 32,67–91 doi:10.1017/S0269889719000048 RESEARCH ARTICLE Eugenics and racial anthropology in the Ukrainian radical nationalist tradition Per Anders Rudling Lund University, Lund, Sweden and National University of Singapore, Singapore Emails: [email protected], [email protected] Argument Eugenics and race played significant roles in Ukrainian interwar nationalism, yet remain largely unstudied. The Ukrainian nationalists’ understanding of the racial makeup of their imagined community was contradictory as they struggled to reconcile their desire for racial “purity” with the realities of significant variations between the populations inhabiting the enormous territories which they sought to include in their intended state project. The “turn to the right” over the 1930s placed an increased onus on race, and eugenics came to occupy an increasingly prominent place in Ukrainian radical nationalism from around 1936. In 1941, the leading Ukrainian far-right organization, the OUN had developed a project for eugenic engineering, for their aborted state, declared in L’viv on June 30, 1941. Racial conceptualiza- tions of the Ukrainian community figured prominently well into the Cold War era, gaining a new actuality and meaning in an émigré community dispersed across several countries. Keywords: Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists; eugenics; race; Teodosius Dobzhansky; Iaroslav Stets’ko; Dmytro Dontsov; anti-Semitism Introduction Only in recent years has the intellectual history of eugenics in Eastern Europe become the sub- ject of a more systematic academic inquiry. A number of important studies have significantly expanded our understanding of eugenic thought in the European states that emerged following the collapse of the multiethnic empires at the end of World War I (Turda and Weindling 2007; Boskovic and Hann 2013; Felder and Weindling 2013; Turda 2015).

  • Introduction the Best Medicine
    Introduction The Best Medicine One morning, in Harvard’s Semitic Museum where the Jew- ish Studies program is housed, I ran into two of my colleagues collecting their mail. The evening before, when I had lectured at a synagogue, a member of the audience had told me a good joke. I couldn’t wait to share it: Four Europeans go hiking together and get terribly lost. First they run out of food, then out of water. “I’m so thirsty,” says the Englishman. “I must have tea!” “I’m so thirsty,” says the Frenchman. “I must have wine.” “I’m so thirsty,” says the German. “I must have beer.” “I’m so thirsty,” says the Jew. “I must have diabetes.” The joke was brand new when I told it that morning— though it is by now well worn, at least in part because I put it into cir- culation in published and recorded talks about Jewish humor. If you are into such things, you will appreciate my thrill at the laughter that greeted the punch line. How often do you get to tell Jews a joke that they haven’t heard before? 1 Introduction But as I was about to follow my colleagues out of the front office, the receptionist, who had overheard our conversa- tion, told me that she found the joke offensive. Indeed, if we weren’t Jews, she said, she would have called it anti- Semitic. Could I please explain what was funny about it and account for our hilarity? This young woman, let me call her Samantha, was dating a Jewish student in our department, and as a Gentile, had previ- ously asked me about unfamiliar terms and concepts in the novels of Isaac Bashevis Singer.

  • Acta 109.Indd
    Reviews 249 The Hungarian Historical Review. Acta Historica Academiae Scien- tiarum Hungaricae – New Series, ii, 4 (2013): Teréz Oborni (ed.), Bethlen: The Prince of Transylvania, 233 pp. It has already became customary in the Hungarian-speaking scholarship that research on the outstanding personalities from the Hungarian and Transylvanian history is presented on the occasion of anniversaries. Among recent examples, there are publications on Francis II Rákóczi (2003), Stephen Bocskai (2006), Mathias Corvinus (2008) and Gabriel Báthory (2009). Fol- lowing this pattern, in 2013 the historians concentrated on the fi gure of Gabriel Bethlen (1580–1629), prince of Transylvania (1613–29) and elected king of Hungary (1620–1). An excuse for that was the 400. anniversary of his accession to the Transylvanian throne. A previous similar accumulation of the studies on Bethlen occurred in early 1980s, due to the 400. birth anniversary.1 Like the predominant majority of the earlier publications, the 2013 contributions took the form of special issues of periodicals and edited volumes with a considerable role of published conference papers.2 As far as the recent scholarship is concerned, of special importance for the interna- tional audience have been the thematic issues of The Hungarian Historical Review, a journal re-established in 2012 (formerly as Acta Historica Academiae 1 Kálmán Kovács (ed.), Bethlen Gábor állama és kora (Budapest, 1980) (includes the bibliography of works on Bethlen till 1980 by László Mihály Hernadi, available at <http://mek.oszk.hu/03900/03971/> [Accessed March 31, 2014); László Makkai (ed.), Bethlen Gábor emlékezete (Budapest, 1980); László Makkai (ed.), Bethlen Gábor kronikásai (Budapest, 1980); Lajos Demény, Bethlen Gábor és kora (Bukarest, 1982); see also the issues of Századok, cxv (1981), cxvii (1983).
