Jevrejski identitet u ranoj modernoj Evropskoj istoriji

Abstract

Jevrejski identitet u ranom modernom periodu - epohi u kojoj tradicionalno antijevrejstvo prerasta u antisemitizam - oblikovan je nasiljem, izgonom, getoizacijom, formama vizuelne diferencijacije, integracijom, ali ne i asimilacijom u okvire evropske hrišćanske kulture. Izučavanjem odnosa intelektualnih i fizičkih kategorija, duše i tela kao socijalnih i istorijskih konstrukta, može se, donekle, odgovoriti na pitanje šta to znači biti Jevrejin u ranom modernom dobu. Na osnovu iskustava aktuelnih protagonista i posmatrača, u njihovoj sopstvenoj realnosti, ovaj tekst predstavlja percepciju i samopercepciju Jevreja u mentalnim i vizuelnim kodovima renesanse.

Jewish identity in the early modern period - the era in which traditional anti-Judaism turned into anti-Semitism - is shaped by violence, expulsion, ghetoisation, visual forms of differentiation, integration but not assimilation into the European Christian culture. Studying the relationship of intellectual and physical categories, soul and body as a social and historical construct, it can be, to some extent, answer the question what it means to be Jewish in the early modern period. Based on the experiences of actual protagonists and observers, in their own reality, this text represents the perception and self-perception of Jews in the mental and visual codes of the Renaissance.
