Anti-Semitic Hatred In 1815-1860

At the end of WWI in 1918, Germany’s economy was in ruins. There were very few jobs, and bitterness began to take over the country. According to the text, “Hitler, a rising politician, offered Germany a scapegoat: Jewish people. Hitler said that Jewish people were to blame for Germany’s problems. He believed that Jews did not deserve to live.” (7) This was the birth of Antisemitism--prejudice against Jewish people. Europe’s Jewish people have always been persecuted due to their “different customs and beliefs that many viewed with suspicion.”(7) Hitler simply reignited the flames, and a violent hatred was born.

The hatred towards Jews was nothing new in that time. Throughout history Jews have been prosecuted and blamed for many of the world's problems, and Germany was the same. The treaty of Versailles was incredibly harsh on Germany as it extinguished the nations power and reduced its presets on an international scale. The Germany people especially hated the treaty of Versailles and they needed someone to blame, so lo and behold the hatred of Jews began in Germany. The TOV was signed and approved by Jewish politicians so many German peopled blamed Jews for the TOV. During the 1930s, many Jews where doctors, lawyers and bankers which

When the Rome economy went to shit they established Pogroms. The pogroms attacked Jewish people. The Romans destroyed the Jewish State. (A Brief History of Anti-Semitism) They destroyed the Jewish temple in Jerusalem and forced Jews to leave Palestine. (History.com, n.d.)

Anti-semitism did not start with Adolf Hitler. Even though the use of the term goes back to the 1870's, there is evidence of cruelty towards Jews in ancient times. The ancient Romans destroyed the Jewish temple in Jerusalem and forced Jews to leave. The Enlightenment, during the 17th-18th centuries emphasized religious toleration. In the 19th century European rulers enacted legislation that ended restrictions on Jews.

The media in America often depicted Jewish people have a large nose, dressed all in black or garishly and often speaking in odd English. During immigrant waves during 19th and 20th century Jew anti-Semitic have been circulated. During 1880’s, plenty of Jewish Americans were excluded from Anglo-Protestant institutions (currently known as WASPs). There are one incident in 1877, a Jewish banker was denied by the Major New Yorker Hotel to provide a banker a simple accommodation.

Anti-Semitism is the hostility and discriminations against Jews of any culture or nationality and is widely considered to be a form of racism. The term Anti-Semitism was created in 1879 by a German protestor, Wilhelm Marr (Britannica, 2016). The purpose of Anti-Semitism at that time was because to entitle the anti-Jewish campaigns under way in Central Europe (Britannica, 2016). Although, the Anti-Semitism has wide popularity during that era, it is completely inaccurate and threatened many lives of innocent Jews. Therefore, the Anti-Semitic was around Germany even before Hitler came the leader of the ‘National Socialist Party’ and further enhanced this discriminant idea. Mot to mention that Hitler grew up in Austria, a place where Jews were

There was considerable variation in the beliefs and sentiments towards the Jewish population in the years preceding the Holocaust. While it has been said that Hitler’s fascist racism found its root in traditional Catholic anti-Semitism, it is undeniable that both forms of anti-Semitism were anti-Jewish. However, not all Europeans shared Hitler’s views and this led to the existence of various degrees of anti-Jewish sentiments throughout Europe. Additionally, the change in leadership of the Church that occurred during the years of the Holocaust also caused some variance in opinion on this matter. At the onset of the Holocaust, Pope Pius XI was the head of the Church. During his final years, he had taken

In the year of 1492, most people instantly think of the Columbus’ discovery of the New World. But in the joy of the discovery of the New World also comes the tragedy of the Old World. The Spanish Inquisition was one of the darkest periods of time in Jewish history.

The Jewish people have had a history of hatred towards them that stems from the early biblical text to modern day. The people themselves have stuck to their religious roots and have not given up on their culture or their beliefs in spite of risking violence and hatred from many cultures that they live amongst. In France especially, the history of anti-semitism stems back from the Black Plague of Europe and rose and fell depending of the emotional standing of the people of the country and different times. This paper will discuss the history of this anti-semitism in france, the historical events that caused much strife for the jewish people, and the continued subtle hatred that comes through in the country today.

Throughout pre-war Germany, many Germans began to view themselves a racially superior to others, especially Jews. Much of the anti-Semitism found in Germany stemmed from medieval times, when many Christians had disdain for the Jews because they were responsible for the crucifixion of Jesus. Even though traditional Christian anti-Semitism had long existed, a new form was growing. This new form was largely based on Social Darwinism, and saw Jews as the weak, and the Aryan race as superior. This modern anti-Semitism was only exacerbated by the formation of racial societies, one of the most notable being the Pan-German League. This uber-patriotic organization wanted to create lebensraum for the German people, and forecast that a messiah would come

Anti-semitism, according to the Oxford Dictionary means hostility or prejudice against Jews. Although the word was never used until the late nineteenth century, which was coined by Moritz Steinschneider (1816-1907), the ideology dates back through many centuries. Nevertheless, antisemitism in Germany can be detected from the time of the reformation, by the reformer himself, Martin Luther. Since Luther’s antisemitic treatise “The Jews and their Lies” German Christians and people in general, began to harbor antisemitic feelings towards the Jews.

Having considered anti-Jewish sentiment in Early Modern Europe, it is reasonable to look at how Jews were treated during the Enlightenment period in Germany and whether antisemitism was evident. During this period, Jews did encounter individuals who demonstrated an acceptance of them. For instance, Christian Wilhelm Von Dohm was a German scholar who determined that it was believed that Jews acted in the way they did because of the circumstances they were put in. He further argued that “any other group of men, under such conditions, would be guilty of identical errors.” Moreover, it is “because of these prejudices that prevent [a Jew] from becoming a good citizen.” Therefore, it is apparent that during this time period, some scholars tried
