Abstract

Les discours religieux fondamentalistes expriment une obsession croissante de la pudeur des femmes. Réduite aux parties de son corps susceptibles d'éveiller le désir, la femme est "génitalisée" à outrance. Faut-il la renvoyer à son destin : le voilement ? Delphine Horvilleur analyse les sens de la pudeur et de la nudité, l'obsession du corps de la femme pour proposer une autre interprétation des textes et de la tradition. Elle met à mal les lectures qui font de la femme un être tentateur, et de la pudeur l'instrument de sa domination. Ainsi montre-t-elle comment la nudité recouverte d'Adam, d'Eve ou de Noé renvoie à une culture du désir et non à une volonté de le tuer. Comment le voile est à l'origine destiné à approcher l'autre. Comment les hommes endossent, dans la prière et la pratique, les attributs des femmes et du maternel.

Abstract

Could the best thing about religion be the heresies it spawns? Leading intellectuals in interwar Europe thought so. They believed that they lived in a world made derelict by God's absence and the interruption of his call. In response, they helped resurrect gnosticism and pantheism, the two most potent challenges to the monotheistic tradition. In God Interrupted, Benjamin Lazier tracks the ensuing debates about the divine across confessions and disciplines. He also traces the surprising afterlives of these debates in postwar arguments about the environment, neoconservative politics, and heretical forms of Jewish identity. In lively, elegant prose, the book reorients the intellectual history of the era. God Interrupted also provides novel accounts of three German-Jewish thinkers whose ideas, seminal to fields typically regarded as wildly unrelated, had common origins in debates about heresy between the wars. Hans Jonas developed a philosophy of biology that inspired European Greens and bioethicists the world over. Leo Strauss became one of the most important and controversial political theorists of the twentieth century. Gershom Scholem, the eminent scholar of religion, radically recast what it means to be a Jew. Together they help us see how talk about God was adapted for talk about nature, politics, technology, and art. They alert us to the abiding salience of the divine to Europeans between the wars and beyond--even among those for whom God was long missing or dead.

Abstract

The most prominent story of 19th century German & French Jewry has focused on Jews' adoption of liberal middle-class values. Joskowicz points to an equally powerful aspect of modern Jewish history: the extent to which German and French Jews sought to become modern by criticising the anti-modern positions of the Catholic Church. From the moment in which Jews began to enter the fray of modern European politics, they found that Catholicism served as a convenient foil that helped them define what it meant to be a good citizen, to practice a respectable religion, and to have a healthy family life.
