EDITORIAL 3 Halacha und Gesellschaft – Aspekte religiösen Lebens heute Editorial Die politischen Veränderungen in Osteuropa der 90er Jahre führten zu einem Wachstum und einer Neuorientierung der jüdischen Gemeinschaft in Deutsch- land. Dieser Wandel wird hierzulande zunehmend in der tagespolitischen Dis- kussion wahrgenommen und trägt wie auch die Etablierung der Jüdischen Stu- dien/Judaistik an den Universitäten zu einem breiten öffentlichen Interesse am Judentum bei. Eine vorurteilsfreie Begegnung mit jüdisch-religiösem Leben ist dadurch aber keinesfalls garantiert. Die mit ideologischen Ressentiments unter- setze Diskussion einer breiteren Öffentlichkeit über koscheres Schlachten (Sche- chita), wie sie vor allem in der Schweiz geführt wurde und wird, ist hierfür nur ein Beispiel. Die vorliegende Ausgabe von PaRDeS widmet sich verschiedenen Facetten des modernen jüdisch-religiösen Lebens. Alle hier versammelten Beiträge des Schwerpunktthemas verbinden traditionsgeschichtliche Fragestellungen mit ge- sellschaftspolitisch relevanten Themen. Admiel Kosman (Potsdam) und Anat Sharbat (Jerusalem) weisen in "Two Women Who Were Sporting with Each Other": A Reexamination of the Halakhic Approaches to Lesbianism as a Touchstone for Homosexua- lity in General nach, dass entgegen bisherigen Annahmen in der Traditionslitera- tur auf weibliche wie auf männliche Homosexualität gleichermaßen reagiert wird. Francesca Y. Albertini (Potsdam) thematisiert in Sterbehilfe aus jüdischer Sicht: Eine Einführung das Thema Sterbehilfe und Sterbebegleitung im Kontext jüdi- scher Tradition. Sie geht dabei unter anderem auf einen Gesetzesvorschlag der israelischen Steinberg-Kommission ein. Rabbiner Israel M. Levinger (Jerusalem) plädiert in Schechita und Kaschrut – Jüdischer Standpunkt zum Schlachten von Tieren für das jüdisch-rituelle Schlachtverfahren, welches im Einklang mit den Grundsät- zen eines zeitgemäßen Tierschutzes steht. Der Beitrag von Wolfgang Wieshaider (Wien) beleuchtet am Beispiel eines Friedhofs räumliche Aspekte jüdischer Reli- giosität. Er zeichnet in Jüdischer Friedhof und staatliches Recht die wechselvolle Ge- schichte eines jüdischen Friedhofs im Hamburger Stadtteil Ottensen nach. Am Rande des thematischen Schwerpunktes diskutiert Chayim Schell-Apacik (Mün- chen) in Genetische Untersuchungen und Schwangerschaftsabbruch im Kontext jüdischer Ethik am Beispiel der Tay-Sachs-Erkrankung den ethischen Diskurs über angebore- 4 EDITORIAL ne Krankheiten homogener Gruppen und weist auf die Möglichkeit eines frei- willigen Anlageträgertests hin. Außerhalb des Themenschwerpunktes verorten Manfred Voigts (Potsdam) und Andreas Kennecke (Berlin) in ihrem Beitrag Euchel, Mendelssohn, Herder und Andere einen bislang unbekannten Text Euchels in der europäischen und jüdi- schen Geistesgeschichte. Euchels Beitrag aus den Berichten der Allgemeinen Buchhandlung der Gelehrten wird im Anschluss als Reprint wiedergegeben. Ta- gungsberichte, Rezensionen, Mitteilungen und Vorankündigungen beschließen das vorliegende Heft. An dieser Stelle möchten wir bereits auf die von der Vereinigung für Jüdische Studien e.V. mitorganisierte Tagung ´Zwischenräume` – Jüdisch-christliche Lebenswel- ten unter venezianischer Herrschaft im späten Mittelalter und der frühen Neuzeit in Vene- dig hinweisen und herzlich einladen. Im Rahmen der vom 05.-07.09.2007 statt- findenden Tagung wird auch die nächste Mitgliederversammlung der Vereini- gung durchgeführt werden. Ein detailliertes Programm ist diesem Heft zu ent- nehmen. PaRDeS versteht sich als wissenschaftliches Forum judaistischer Forschung und möchte zudem eine offene Plattform für verschiedene Diskurse im Bereich der Jüdischen Studien bieten. Die im nächsten Jahr erscheinende Ausgabe von PaRDeS wird als Schwerpunkt ein Thema mit osteuropäischem Bezug haben. Mit diesem Heft stellt sich neben dem Herausgeber Nathanael Riemer zugleich Alexander Dubrau als neuer Mitherausgeber vor.

  • An Annotated Outline of Daniel Boyarin, a Radical Jew: Paul and the Politics of Identity
    1 Alexander Kyrychenko December 5, 2005 An Annotated Outline of Daniel Boyarin, A Radical Jew: Paul and the Politics of Identity Introduction: Wrestling with Paul 1. Paul was motivated by a set of problems and ideas generated by his cultural and religious situation; therefore, he was a Jewish cultural critic. The question is what it was in Jewish culture that led him to produce a discourse of its radical reform. 2. The focus is on Paul's letter to the Galatians. The eschatology of the letter is realized eschatology—the ways in which the world is already changed by the coming and crucifixion and rising of the Christ from the dead. Moreover, Galatians develops the theme of the new humanity, which includes both Jews and Gentiles. Galatians 3:28–29 is the baptismal declaration of the new humanity of no difference. 3. Paul was motivated by a Hellenistic desire for the One, which produced an ideal of a universal human essence, beyond difference and hierarchy. a. This universal humanity was predicated on the dualism of the flesh and the spirit, such that while the body is particular, marked through practice as Jew or Greek, and through anatomy as male or female, the spirit is universal. Paul did not, however, reject the body, but rather promoted a system whereby the body had its place, albeit subordinated to the spirit. Paul's anthropological dualism was matched by a hermeneutical dualism as well. b. Just as the human being is divided into a fleshy and a spiritual component, so also is language itself.

This project maps and analyzes these efforts (e.g., by Heine, Kafka, Salten) at promoting or subverting—and often both—the bestialization of the Jew in the Central European cultural imagination.

In the Shadows of Memory: The Politics of Holocaust Memorialization and the Rise of Global Populism Emily Bourgeois 2018 survey conducted by the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany revealed that there are significant gaps Ain the average American’s knowledge of the Holocaust, the events between 1933 and 1941 that resulted in the systematic murder of six million European Jews.1 The unprecedented scale of Nazi operations required the invention of a precise term to describe the most deliberate crimes against humanity: geno- cide. One third of the survey respondents (31%) believe that the Jewish death toll was two million or less; fewer than half (45%) of respondents could name a single concentration camp or ghetto. These statistics reveal a frightening fact about historical narratives surrounding the Holocaust: they are subject to out- side influence.

  • Holocaust Historiography, Anxiety and the Formulations of a Diasporic Jewishness
    introduction Holocaust Historiography, Anxiety and the Formulations of a Diasporic Jewishness Th e premier demand upon all education is that Auschwitz not hap- pen again. Its priority before any other requirement is such that I believe I need not and should not justify it. —Th eodore Adorno, Can One Live aft er Auschwitz? A Philosophical Reader To establish a set of norms that are beyond power or force is itself a powerful and forceful conceptual practice that sublimates, dis- guises and extends its own power play through recourse to tropes of normative universality . [T]he task is to interrogate what the theoretical move that establishes foundations authorizes, and what it precisely excludes or forecloses. —Judith Butler, ‘Contingent Foundations: Feminism and the Question of “Postmodernism”’ When I was at school, a game occasionally played by my friends was to ask, ‘Are you a Jewish Australian or an Australian Jew?’ Th e idea was that whatever you put fi rst was what you prioritized. I remember my brother pointing out once that, gram- matically, it was whichever one put second that was the key idea around which they organised their identity. But the terms signifi ed for all of us that what came fi rst was most important; and that, from a young age, we were already contemplating which came fi rst. Th e two terms (or ideas, or identities), it seemed, did not sit well together; it was a competition between the two. One came fi rst. Th e other was deprioritized. Many years later I read Judith Butler’s resonant words, where she writes, ‘[c]on- sider that it may be a mistake to declare one’s affi liation by stating an order of pri- orities: I am X fi rst and then Y.

  • Locating Matthew in Israel
    Locating Matthew in Israel by Roy Allan Fisher A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Joint Doctor of Philosophy with the Graduate Theological Union in Near Eastern Religions in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Daniel Boyarin, Chair Professor Paul Rabinow Professor Margaret Conkey Professor Jean-François Racine Spring 2018 © Copyright 2018 Roy Allan Fisher All Rights Reserved. Abstract Locating Matthew in Israel by Roy Allan Fisher Joint Doctor of Philosophy with the Graduate Theological Union in Near Eastern Religions University of California, Berkeley Professor Daniel Boyarin, Chair “Locating Matthew in Israel” renders visible the Second Temple Jewish ethos of Matthew’s gospel, while at the same time producing a more ethical contemporary scholarly reading of the First Gospel. This inquiry is undertaken without recourse to the arborescent and epochal framings that characterize most scholarly inquiries of Matthew. Drawing on an eclectic mix of conversation partners – including the works of Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze, Claude Lévi-Strauss, and Bertolt Brecht – this reading begins the progress of remediating the epochal blockage pervasive in Matthaean studies through the introduction of the off-epochal. By off-setting epoch, new possibilities and space are opening in this reading. “Locating Matthew in Israel” demonstrates that Matthew’s composition is best described as Torah-formed. Additionally, this close reading centers on three key divine presence passages (Matthew 1:23; 18:20; 28:20) to provide an alternative non- incarnational figuration of Jesus. Functionally, Matthew’s bricolage presents Jesus as Torah-transfigured not as the incarnate logos.
