ABSTRACT ISAAC SATANOW, THE MAN AND HIS WORK; A STUDY IN THE BERLIN HASKAIAH Nehama Rezler Bersohn Isaac Satanow, one of the most prolific writers of the Berlin Haskalah (Jewish enlightenment), typifies the maskil (an enlightened Jew) of his time. He was born and reared in Podolia, Poland at a time when Frankism and Cabbalah were reaching their peak influence. He subsequently moved to Berlin where the Jewish enlightenment movement was gaining momentum influenced by the general enlightenment and Prussia's changing economy. Satanow's way of life expressed the con­ fluence of these two worlds, Podolia and Berlin. Satanow adopted the goal of the moderate Haskalah to educate the Jewish masses, and by teaching them modern science, modern languages and contemporary ideas, to help them in improving their economic, social and political situation. To achieve this goal, he wrote numerous books and articles, sometimes imitating styles of and attributing the authorship to medieval and earlier writers so that his teaching would be respected and accepted.

  • Jegór Von Sivers' Herderian Cosmopolitanism
    Ajalooline Ajakiri, 2012, 1/2 (139/140), 79–113 Humanität versus nationalism as the moral foundation of the Russian Empire: Jegór von Sivers’ Herderian cosmopolitanism* Eva Piirimäe No single author is more important for the development of nationalism in Central and Eastern Europe than Johann Gottfried Herder (1744–1803).1 Yet Herder’s own relationship to nationalism continues to be debated.2 This is partly owed to the ambivalence of the notion “nationalism” itself. There is no doubt Herder is a “nationalist”, if by this term we refer to someone who defends national diversity as valuable and cherishes and cultivates one’s own language and national customs. Yet, it is more common in the anglo- phone world to use the term “nationalist” for someone who supports one’s nation’s aggressive foreign policies. In this case, Herder is rather an oppo- nent of nationalism. There is also a third widely used notion of national- ism, known also as the “principle of nationality” according to which “the * Research for this article has been funded by the Estonian Science Foundation Grant No. 8887 and the Target Financed Program No. SF0180128s08. 1 See Peter Drews, Herder und die Slaven: Materialien zur Wirkungsgeschichte bis zur Mitte des 19.

  • 251 Chapter IX Revolution And
    251 Chapter IX Revolution and Law (1789 – 1856) The Collapse of the European States System The French Revolution of 1789 did not initialise the process leading to the collapse of the European states system but accelerated it. In the course of the revolution, demands became articulate that the ruled were not to be classed as subjects to rulers but ought to be recognised as citizens of states and members of nations and that, more fundamentally, the continuity of states was not a value in its own right but ought to be measured in terms of their usefulness for the making and the welfare of nations. The transformations of groups of subjects into nations of citizens took off in the political theory of the 1760s. Whereas Justus Lipsius and Thomas Hobbes1 had described the “state of nature” as a condition of human existence that might occur close to or even within their present time, during the later eighteenth century, theorists of politics and international relations started to position that condition further back in the past, thereby assuming that a long period of time had elapsed between the end of the “state of nature” and the making of states and societies, at least in some parts of the world. Moreover, these theorists regularly fused the theory of the hypothetical contract for the establishment of government, which had been assumed since the fourteenth century, with the theory of the social contract, which had only rarely been postulated before.2 In the view of later eighteenth-century theorists, the combination of both types of contract was to establish the nation as a society of citizens.3 Supporters of this novel theory of the combined government and social contract not merely considered human beings as capable of moving out from the “state of nature” into states, but also gave to humans the discretional mandate to first form their own nations as what came to be termed “civil societies”, before states could come into existence.4 Within states perceived in accordance with these theoretical suppositions, nationals remained bearers of sovereignty.

From the outset, the assumption was that the century was traversed by themes and tensions that in one way or another continue to dominate o ideas about European peace and progress today. These need to be highlighted so as to enable an rd adequate historical understanding of the difficulties of the present moment, including the nature E of the alternatives faced by European decision-makers today. The focus reaches beyond European th ring institutions, in order to approach the themes and tensions that overarch the past two centuries in their global context. EuropE 1815-1914: E World The volume argues that a realistic history is needed that rejects any grand narrative about CrEating Community and modernity, progress or liberalism (to name some popular contestants) embedded in the nineteenth century. If we have had this time as not beginning with the revolution in 1789 this ordEring thE World is because we have wanted to avoid accepting perhaps the most persistent foundation myth with which European institutions have preferred to decorate themselves.

  • Moses Mendelssohn on Hebrew As a Language of Action Avi Lifschitz
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by UCL Discovery 1 A natural yet providential tongue: Moses Mendelssohn on Hebrew as a language of action Avi Lifschitz (UCL) Abstract: How did Moses Mendelssohn reconcile a naturalistic theory of language, advocating the contingent development of all tongues, with the belief that Hebrew was a divine language that did not change ever since its inception? The seeming contradiction was resolved by employing the contemporary notion of the language of action – a primordial means of communication, where gesture and melody were as significant as words. Mendelssohn’s view of Hebrew as the language closest to this idiom was accompanied by his suggestion that the Jewish ceremonial law is a living script which can be properly understood only through oral instruction. He employed both ideas to counter the notions that the Hebrew vowel points were a late invention and that some loci in the Hebrew Bible had been subject to textual corruption. For Mendelssohn, the allegedly supernatural aspects of spoken Hebrew could be naturalised through constant and lively human conversation across the ages. The appropriation of contemporary critiques of the arbitrariness of language allowed Mendelssohn to forge an original synthesis that could simultaneously accommodate naturalism and providentialism. If this essay starts with Heinrich Heine’s well-known comparison between Moses Mendelssohn and Martin Luther, it is only in order to question this nineteenth-century commentary on Mendelssohn. Heine saw the Jewish philosopher and the Christian reformer as the intellectual pioneers of a return to the Bible which involved, respectively, the undermining of rabbinical literature and Catholic scholasticism.

Alexis de Tocqueville, L' ancien regime et la revolu­ tion, ch. XI. I The German Enlightenme11.t is reputed to have foster·ed subser­ vience to governmental authority, or at best to have been inordi­ nately willing to knuckle under. Even its leading figures-for exam­ ,,., ple, Lessing and Kant-were constrained by governmental pressure.1 .~ " '~ Less illusNious writers and thinkers are generally held to have \'"1 been hopelessly subservient to absolutism, a circumstance which .

Saine, who contends that the German Enlightenment I.'' failed to produce any significant opposition to absolutism and its ~ spokesmen.3 ·~. Because the Christian church still exercised a considerable in­ fluence in Germany during the eighteenth century, scholars have stressed the important role played by the Protestant clergy as prop­ agators of Aufklarung.4 For Saine, therefore, to uphold his charac­ terization· of the entire German Enlightenment as a movement es­ sentially incapable of resisting pro-absolutist pressures, he must demonstrate that most Protestant churches at the time were utterly defenseless against the temporal government's boundless desire to manipulate spiritual institutions in the service of this-worldly goals.

  • Republicanism
    Republicanism These volumes are the fruits of a major European Science Foundation project and o◊er the first comprehensive study of republicanism as a shared European heritage. Whilst previous research has mainly focused on Atlantic traditions of republicanism,Professors Skinner and van Gelderen have assembled an internationally distinguished set of contributors whose studies highlight the richness and diversity of European traditions. Volume i focuses on the importance of anti-monarchism in Europe and analyses the relationship between citizenship and civic humanism,concluding with studies of the relationship between constitutionalism and republicanism in the period between 1500 and 1800. Volume ii is devoted to the study of key republican values such as liberty,virtue,politeness and toleration. This volume also addresses the role of women in European republican traditions,and contains a number of in-depth studies of the relationship between republicanism and the rise of commercial society in early modern Europe. Martin van Gelderen studied at the European University Institute and taught at the Technische Universit¨at in Berlin prior to his appointment as Professor of Intellectual History at the University of Sussex in 1995. His publications include The Political Thought of the Dutch Revolt (Cambridge,1992) and The Dutch Revolt (Cambridge Texts in the History of Political Thought, 1993),and he is currently preparing (also for the Cambridge Texts series) a new English rendition of De iure belli ac pacis by Hugo Grotius. Quentin Skinner is Regius Professor of Modern History in the University of Cambridge. A Fellow of Christ’s College,Cambridge,he is also a f ellow of numerous academic bodies and the recipient of several honorary degrees.
