Is research on antisemitism even necessary in countries with a relatively small Jewish population? Absolutely, as this volume shows. Compared to other countries, research on antisemitism in the Nordic countries (Denmark, the Faroe Islands, Finland, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden) is marginalized at an institutional and staffing level, especially as far as antisemitism beyond German fascism, the Second World War, and the Holocaust is concerned. Furthermore, compared to scholarship on other prejudices and minority groups, issues concerning Jews and anti-Jewish stereotypes remain relatively underresearched in Scandinavia - even though antisemitic stereotypes have been present and flourishing in the North ever since the arrival of Christianity, and long before the arrival of the first Jewish communities.This volume aims to help bring the study of antisemitism to the fore, from the medieval period to the present day. Contributors from all the Nordic countries describe the status of as well as the challenges and desiderata for the study of antisemitism in their respective countries.

›Skandale‹ um geheim gehaltene Verstrickungen in den Nationalsozialismus haben u. a. mit Grass, Andersch oder Walser zentrale Mitglieder der Gruppe 47 betroffen. Die Studie fragt erstmals systematisch nach der Bedeutung dieser Einflüsse für die literarischen Texte der Gruppe. Ausgehend vom gegenwärtigen Bild der Gruppe 47, von Theorien narrativer Ethik und der Geschichtsforschung zur ›NS-Moral‹ untersucht die Studie diskursive Verknüpfungen von Moral und Zugehörigkeit in den wichtigsten Texten der Gruppe 47. Qualitative und quantitative Analysen zeigen die Vorherrschaft eines partikularen Moralverständnisses sowie in mehreren Texten einen Zusammenhang dieser Moralvorstellungen mit literarischem Antisemitismus. Daneben finden sich - u. a. in Bezugnahmen auf Bubers dialogisches Prinzip, das gerade die Hinwendung zum ›radikal Anderen‹ als ethisches Handeln konzipiert - auch alternative Ethiken; allerdings oft in Texten marginalisierter oder als untypisch geltender Mitglieder wie Bachmann und Celan.

This biographical history follows the iconoclastic career of John R. Friedeberg Seeley, pre-eminent "Pop Sociologist" and Mental Health Activist of the 1950s. Seeley's "strange journey" began as a British Home Child, estranged from his cosmopolitan German-Jewish family. Seeley progressed through the ranks of the Canadian Army Medical Corps, and the University of Chicago, to achieve prominence as the author of Crestwood Heights, a defining work of postwar social science. He led an ambitious mental health project in Canadian schools, and was a founding father of York University. However, Seeley's struggle with mental illness and Jewish identity brought him into conflict with the Canadian establishment. His career ended in academic exile, but his dream of a mental health revolution still resonates.
