From Anti-Judaism to Anti-Semitism - Stages of a Discourse of Exclusion

Publication at Faculty of Education |
2021

Abstract

On the one hand, the chapter deals with the development of discourse from anti-Judaism to racial anti-Semitism as a "discursive relay race," and on the other with linguistic strategies of exclusion. According to Lobenstein-Reichmann, one basis for discrimination was the use of the concept of race.

Cross-temporal strategies for the construction of hatred are salient in historical discourses about Jews. Scandalization and emotionalization played a major role in these discourses.
