    Rustica (tapa blanda). Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Nuevo. 01. Vasili Grossman fue el primer verdadero disidente de la literatura soviética. Su decisiva obra, Vida y destino, expresa una concepción histórica, filosófica y teórica diametralmente opuesta a la ideología oficial. Pero su caso se distingue del de otros disidentes por dos motivos. El primero es que su libro, secuestrado por el KGB en 1960, sobrevivió sólo de milagro y no se publicó en Occidente hasta 1980, casi veinte años después de la muerte de su autor. El segundo es que Vida y destino es la obra de un hombre que durante años fue uno de los máximos representantes del realismo soviético. Cómo se produjo esta metamorfosis, la transformación de un revolucionario fiel y convencido en adversario radical del poder soviético Este ensayo de Shimon Márkish intenta responder a esta pregunta.

    Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Dust jacket is complete but rubbed and worn at edges and corners. Ownership inscription on first inside page. Internally clean and bright, with uncreased pages. Otherwise, sound and serviceable. Publisher's note: In the afterword (p. 144-154), Cohen argues against Markish's conclusions, stating that Erasmus's anti-Jewish expressions show that his anti-Judaism was frequently gratuitous and malicious. This theological anti-Judaism, which became part of European culture, was perhaps not recognized by Markish as he considers only the pogrom and the Jew-hatred of the mob as antisemitism. Size: 2.2 x 1.5 x 0.2 cm. viii, 203 pp. Shipped Weight: Under 500 grams. Category: History; ISBN: 0226505901. ISBN/EAN: 9780226505909. Add. Inventory No: 251008REB0106822.…

    Hardback. Zustand: New. Erasmus of Rotterdam was the greatest Christian humanist scholar of the Northern European Renaissance, a correspondent of Sir Thomas More and many other learned men of his time, known to his contemporaries and to posterity for subtlety of his thought and the depth of his learning. He was also, according to some modern writers, an anti-Semite. In this complete analysis of all of Erasmus' writings on Jews and Judaism, Shimon Markish asserts that the accusation cannot be sustained. For Markish, to ask whether Erasmus was a friend or enemy of the Jews is to ask a modern question of a sixteenth-century man, whose attitude can best be called "asemitism." Erasmus' chief preoccupation was with the future of "the true philosophy of Christ"; he had little interest in the Jewish community of his own time. Erasmus and the Jews discusses Erasmus' critique of Mosaic law and his view of the conflict between "Judaism" as legalistic morality and Jesus' teaching; his judgment on the Pharisees of Jesus' time; his emphasis on the importance of the study of Hebrew; and his opinions of sixteenth-century Jews. This meticulous analysis reveals an Erasmus who defended his vision of true piety by rejecting "Judaizing" Christians more than Jews and who saw the Old Testament as integral to the Christian worldview. As a Christian, he regretted nonbelief and pitied unbelievers, without vicious hostility toward any single people. His theological opposition to a form of religious thought which he identified with Judaism was not translated into crude prejudice against actual Jews. In general, his calm consideration of the strange and the foreign and his willingness to restrict his judgments to the philosophical realm were, Markish argues, early and significant steps toward enlightened toleration. Markish's discussion of Erasmus is supplemented with an Afterword by theologian and philosopher Arthur A. Cohen, who offers a variant interpretation of Erasmus' writings and attitudes. The juxtaposed arguments of the two scholars make this an especially illuminating work for any student of Erasmus and his influence. Erasmus and the Jews also gives a necessary clarity to our understanding of the meaning of anti-Semitism and the history of religious toleration. Markish's profound knowledge of Erasmus allows him to demonstrate the fundamental importance of putting arguments and terminology in the context of a thinker's work and his own time.…
