10 weeks ago , you answered these questions, now we began by asking ourselves again with four preliminary questions about the nature of antisemitism:
1)Have you ever witnessed something (in words, gestures, or actions) you think was antisemitic?Can you describe it?Have you ever experienced something which you directly felt was antisemitic?Can you describe it?2) On a scale of 1 to 10 (1 being low and 10 being high) do you think that antisemitism is a problem or issue today?3) How would you define antisemitism?Can you give examples of what you think is antisemitic (without question), examples of what might be antisemitic, and examples of what you believe is definitely not antisemitic? 4) What percentage of your social circle would you guess to be Jewish?
Did you change your mind?
We have now completed a ten-week examination of what Robert Wistrich described as the “longest hatred.”
Please write an well-written and well-organized essay in which you ask yourself if your initial response to question 3 should be revised or should remain the same.However, in answering this question you must discuss antisemitism in these historical periods we have studied.
Those historical periods are
1) Anti-Judaism from the Reformation to the Enlightenment,
2) Modern Racial Antisemitism,
3) From the First World War to the Trial of Adolf Eichmann
4) Post-Holocaust Eliminationist Antisemitism.
Among the questions you might wish to consider answering in your essay are the following:
Why is a definition of antisemitism necessary today?
Would you revise your response to the other questions.
Has antisemitism changed over the historical periods we have studied or has it remained the same?
Can antisemitism be reduced to a single element or a single cause?
Your response should be carefully constructed so as to demonstrate that you control both the lecture materials and the reading assignments.
How to prepare: You must meet these requirements in your essay.
1.Carefully review your lecture materials and make certain that you have completed all the reading materials for the course.
2.Consider your response to the four questions.Have you changed your thinking?If it remains the same, you must bring the appropriate materials from what we have discussed in this course to support your position.
3.Make certain that you can discuss in detail at least three examples from each of the historical periods you discuss in your essay (e.g., Luther’s attitude toward the Jews or German attitudes toward Jewish participation in the war effort in Germany during WWI or Holocaust Denial).
4.Make certain that you can include your responses to the following reading questions in appropriate places in your essay:
- Can you summarize Jean-Paul Sartre’s interpretation of antisemitism?
- What was the evidence for the Judenrate’s complicity with the Nazis according to Hannah Arendt?
- What led Hannah Arendt to her conclusion about the “banality of evil”?
- What do you think are the most important elements in Timothy Synder’s examination of “Hitler’s World” and “Livingspace”?Why does he subtitle this account as the Holocaust as warning?
- What were some of the issues at stake in the Irving v. Lipstadt trial?
- How is Holocaust memory abused according to Gerstenfeld?
- What does Lipstadt mean by “Toxifying Israel” and can you provide examples of this?

I just received two questions about the paper that I would like to share with all of you. The paper asks you to return to where we began and for you to reconsider your original response to question three of the preliminary questions you responded to. How did you originally define antisemitism and given our course of study, allow it to remain the same or change it. Wether you keep it the same or revise it, you must discuss your definition with an eye to the historical periods we have studied. So this question is asking you to put your thoughts together with the history. Four historical periods. There are then several additional questions you might use to organize or structure how you think about your original definition and the historical examples we have studied. Let me underscore that you do not need to answer all of these other questions. They are there as possible guides to the way you might. You certainly do not have to return to all of the preliminary questions that you answered. I hope this clarifies what the question is asking you to do in your essay.
