The Christian anti-Semitism has pagan origins

History written by Leon Poliakov Semitism behind the Nuremberg trials and then published in the fifties (in Italy by Sansoni) devotes a very limited number of pages to the origin of feelings of hostility toward Jews as well you are registering before the Christian era: "I do not find in ancient pagan-Poliakov wrote passionate reactions-those who later make the collective fate of the Jews so hard and precarious." He acknowledged, Poliakov, you must make an exception for the city of Alexandria, where there was a large Jewish community and the conflicts between the Jews and the population Greek were "frequent and sharp," so they had to record multiple "explosions of popular anger against the Jews." But, he added, "As a general rule the Roman Empire from pagan anti-Semitism did not know of the state." And with the downturn of the anti-Jewish expressions everything that we find in abundance in the writings of Diodorus Siculus, Philostratus, Pompey Trogo, Juvenal, Tacitus, Horace, Valerius Maximus and Seneca.

Several decades after Peter Schaefer in Judeophobia. Anti-Semitism in the ancient world (Carocci) focused on broad-based documentation - on an indication that the greek king of Syria Antiochus VII received by his advisers at the time of the siege of Jerusalem (135 BC) that there had to be limited to conquer the city but should have been "completely eradicate the race of the Jews." From what Schaefer has argued that one can speak of anti-Semitism in full bloom "well before the advent of Christianity." The result is a debate by the obvious implications. And there were many who argue - albeit between the lines - with Schaefer. One for all the Oxford scholar who Jasper Griffin (reviewing Judeophobia on "The New York Review of Books", September 1999) recognized that, yes, even in pre-Christian age "there were cases in which the projected fantasies about the Jews of human sacrifices and vows ratified with human blood, "but added," stories are rare, which is also said about other groups, Druids, Christians, Catiline conspirators and therefore were not the sole prerogative of the Jews. "

Now the debate is set to reopen thanks to a voluminous essay by Martin Goodman, whose final part examines the conflict that opposed Rome to Jerusalem in the late first and early second century AD. A fierce showdown, according to the estimates in the Jewish War of Josephus, caused more than a million and one hundred thousand deaths. Staggering at the time. It was inevitable, the author asks, the collision between the Romans and Jews that had resulted in 70 AD, the carnage and especially the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem? Or at least it was inevitable that the conflict took on a sudden as it definitive? Absolutely not. Indeed, the thesis of the first part of Goodman's book Rome and Jerusalem. The clash of ancient civilizations, which is to Laterza send in a bookstore in the impeccable translation of Michael Sampaolo, is that those two worlds could co-exist very well as they had co-existed until then: it was the struggle for power in Rome that caused the disaster. In what sense? The Roman occupation of the region had lasted for over a century (from 37 BC) without you ever had to face crisis of those proportions. First, due to the repression practiced by Herod later (6 to 66 AD) there was no need even of that.

But at the end of the reign of Nero, things changed. In May 66 with a trivial pretext, the inhabitants had refused to go in procession to greet the emperor two cohorts - the Roman procurator of Judea, Chalk Floro, unleashed his forces against the market leading to greater Jerusalem in one day three thousand six hundred dead, mostly women and children. Vigorous reaction was Jewish, which led to the establishment of an independent state, even if the inhabitants of Jerusalem remained divided between those who wanted to resume a path of peace and those who wish to insist on the field of arms. But the situation at that time was still recoverable. A result of this balance was broken in June 68, the death of Nero.

When the emperor was killed by his freedman Epaphroditus, Titus Flavius \u200b\u200bVespasian, a very capable soldier (but nothing more) who had distinguished himself twenty years before the conquest of Britain, took the opportunity derivatagli from being commander in the field the war in Judaea to exploit the war itself and with it give rise to power in the capital of the upset by divisions over the succession between Galba, Otho and Vitellius. Vespasian succeeded in its intention (69) thanks to the advice of Joseph, a priest of Jerusalem who, after commanding the rebel troops in Galilee, had been captured by the Romans and was made available to the future emperor prophesied for him since 67 (well before the death of Nero) the rise to high office. Joseph would later explain in seven magnificent books of the Jewish War which has been said before - written in 70 when the son of Vespasian, Titus, destroyed the city and the Temple - as his former co-religionists had become overwhelming. Despite the subsequent uprisings in Cyrenaica and Egypt (72) and last attempt at resistance at Masada (73). And here comes the interesting part Goodman's book, where he explores what made it so to say the crisis in the final 70.

Bruise Feeling On My Head

Left and Liberty, 3 symbols in a year. "But how many flags we have to buy?"



not seem to find the peace and freedom political experiment of the Left, now called "Left ecology and Freedom." Last Sunday in Rome Nichi Vendola was elected spokesman of the movement (and future intentions in the party), and for the occasion has been named the new symbol. Nothing wrong, except that it is the third within a year. What has struck, and even a little, the militants of training left-wing "radical but of government." Just take a ride on the official website sinistraeliberta.eu (until a few weeks ago was the official site another, that also changed in a hurry due to the defection of the Socialists).

know that Luke is not enough of change. Titta disconsolate "I can accept it only because there are troubles by the notary who think it's petty politics. But if not for this, please, no". Giuseppe joked, explaining that "12 other versions will follow before the final version disappears ...." The content is this. There are also those who like the new look, of course. And then there are those who are not already a restyling event features: there is little red, there's too white, "left" is written small, "ecology" is good but ...".

In short, history troubled the symbol of the (future) party Vendola teammates is enclosed all the equally troubled history of that movement and everything that moves to the left of the Democratic Party in general divisions, proclamations of unity, even divisions, slammed doors, proposals and constituents , meetings and conferences to the poison, changes of direction and accusations among friends, those too communist, socialist ones too, that reform and environmental goals. A real soap opera.

SEL fact is created by those who had split, and is not a pun. Former Chapterhouse Vendola, former Ds Mussi and Fava, a former PdCI Guidoni and Katia Belillo, plus the Greens and the Socialist Party. The first stage was the last European elections June: there was to overcome the bar of 4% to a 3.1%. Not bad for a new political project was born from a few months and based on compromise any elected would go and sit in different banks depending on the origin, or PSE, or Gue (radical left) or between the European Greens.

But failed to return to Parliament (although European), the grumbling began. And so before they left the Greens who met in Congress, were elected secretary Angelo Bonelli, a unit that the project would not hear for some time and withdrew the troops. Not everyone agreed, and so, even there, purges: the old way Francescato spokeswoman Grace and her former Undersecretary Paolo Cento, said "Er Piotta" because they, instead, we still believed in the SEL.

After they said goodbye to the Socialists Nencini, who meanwhile had resumed the old and glorious (I wonder if lucky) name: Psi. Socialists, in order to conclude the season, had also taken away the keys to the site after the stormy meeting sinistraeliberta.it farewell to others. Now show the "portal service". Every goodbye, of course, led to the change of symbol, because the risk of battles notary. Now approaching regional elections, and the ecology of the Left and Freedom want to sleep soundly, at least from that side. Although the fear of another militant is not be underestimated: "How many different flags we buy from here at the end of 2010?".

witch hunt

The philosopher Emmanuel Levinas, one of the greatest thinkers of the twentieth century, proposed a complex hermeneutical approach to the famous commandment of Leviticus: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself" with extraordinary force, arguing that we are responsible in the face of others. We are responsible even if it is one of our most uncompromising opponent and even that of our enemy. The burglary of the face of Silvio Berlusconi is tearing at the face of a single person but also to the man's face as this is regression and unacceptable and senseless. Then rejoice in the violent act of a mentally unstable is reckless and a sign of serious TARE in the vision of the human being and his integrity. But much more important is the manipulation of the isolated act of a deranged made by the cheerleaders of the PDL in order to unleash a witch hunt and McCarthyism-style mode with squads against freedom of criticism of journalists and political opponents. Today, every democracy worthy of the name has a duty to give immediate and unequivocal solidarity in particular to Antonio di Marco Travaglio and Peter but in general all those who are subjected to this brutal intimidation pillory. Mr. Cicchitto, if he thinks what he says, should take responsibility and bring to justice its most serious allegations, of course Having renounced the 'immunity' Member. The new intellectual Eng. Castelli tried the quotes picked on and irenic. Bonaiuti they should undergo a serious control their perception of reality. They talk about violent language of the left, they, their allies Borghezio, Calderoli and Bossi, their employees supine Knight who has made violent language against opponents, judges and members of the European Parliament, an unparalleled paradigm.

E 'the mind that must change, not the sky that live

Seneca letter of 28

Do you think it happened only to you and you wonder how a fact unheard of, because , having traveled widely and in many different places, you've shaken off your sadness and your spiritual malaise? You have to change mind, not the sky. Also crosses the sea to leave as our Virgil says, that vanish lands and cities, on the horizon, your vices follow you wherever you go. Socrates, a man who complained for the same reason, he said, "Why do you wonder if you do not need to travel? Ports around yourself. You persecute the same reasons that made you flee. "A new land that they can profit? A knowledge of the city and different places? all the fuss is in vain. Ask why this flight is not you help? You run away with yourself. unburden the soul: before then you will not genius anywhere. Do you think your condition is similar to that which is our Virgil in the exalted prophet, spurred and possessed by a spirit not his own: The prophet is trying to drive out the wiggles God from his soul.

Go here and there to shake off the weight that oppresses you, and that becomes more heavily because of this your distress, so a ship load weighs less stable, while if it is tossed around unequally, makes sinking the side on which weighed. Whatever you do, results in harm to you and the same continuous movements harm you: you move a patient. But when you have removed this evil, any change of venue will become enjoyable. Although you will be exiled to distant lands or you will be transferred to any country barbaric, that place, anyway, you seem hospitable. It has more mood that the place where you arrive, so the mind should not be made slave of nowhere. We must live with this conviction was not born for one corner and my country is the whole world. If you make this one clear, do not be surprised at anything you do not need to constantly change region, because you're tired of the above, I would have liked the first, if you consider all as your own. Now I do not travel, and let yourself go astray and lead you move from one place to another, and what you need, live peacefully, you will find anywhere. Is there a more turbulent place of the forum? Again, if you must, you can live in peace. But if we could decide for ourselves, even run away from view and the proximity of the hole, such as unhealthy places also undermine an iron, so for a healthy spirit, vigorous but not yet perfect and there are unhealthy places. I disagree with those who go out into the waves and prefer a troubled life and struggling valiantly every day with many difficulties. The essay must bear it, try not to strut, and prefer peace to the fight, does not help much in getting rid of its own vices, but fought with those of others. "Thirty Tyrants," I say, "Socrates did pressure, but they could not wear out the spirit." Who cares how many bosses? Slavery is one, if one despises it, how many owners have, is free.

is time to finish, provided I pay the first toll. "Being aware of one's faults is the first step toward salvation." I think that Epicurus has given a very fair idea: if one can not make mistakes, does not want to correct; you have to catch him, before correcting himself. Some boast of their vices and you think you are looking for a remedy under those who consider his vices? So as you can, the accused, is' an examination of conscience, first assume the role of prosecutor, judge then, most recently that of intercessor, and sometimes punisciti. Take care.

Why Does My R/c Helicopter Spin In Circles

why males are destined to betray

Any caged tiger is a very sad sight, and Tiger Woods is no exception. Last week he issued a tormented statement in which he revealed that athletes perfect, the god of golf, it's still a human being. The question everyone is asking is why someone like Tiger - whose ego has no need of having to increase their self-esteem, with a beautiful wife and adorable children - feel the need, as he himself said, " transgress. "

To fully understand what happened to Tiger Woods, we must put the clock back very much, going back to the times when the human personality was evolving, returning to the hundreds of thousands of years in which men lived in small tribal groups of hunters and gatherers. It was then that the human mating behavior changed radically. Instead of having a specific mating season, like most mammals, humans began to remain sexually active throughout the year. The girls stopped to express their period of ovulation blatantly, and showed themselves ready to mate even when they could not conceive. Human beings were not limited to sex, but fell in love. The couple became stable, paving the way for the human family unit.

If this system based on the couple has been so useful to our ancestors, why then the trend has not improved, so that when they fall in love their emotional bond is so solid to ensure that any sexual interest in other adults is automatically disabled? The answer is that a certain flexibility in the system was necessary, because often the young men of the tribe were killed during the hunt and sometimes young women died giving birth to their children. If the survivors have had to remain faithful forever with their partners, it would mean that after a family tragedy from the standpoint of playing there would be a waste, and this was a problem in small tribe of true survival.

flexibility in coupling implied that the risk of sexual interest outside of the pair always exists. In small tribal communities there were few opportunities to give rise to problems of large scope, but in today's urban society everything is of course different, and we see an endless number of divorces. You may wonder at this point because husbands and wives to be unfaithful even when they are part of a family that works and even if their partners are not tragically died young.

What causes them to embark on sexual potentially disastrous? In evolutionary terms, the adult male is led to "take action" by two distinct reproductive needs, both motivated by a concern to be sure he tramanderà their genes to the next generation. The prevailing strategy is to devote a large proportion of their time and their energy to raise children born within the couple. Less a strategy, going back to an ancient past, is what puts it in the condition if they have the opportunity to give birth to other random children, to do so provided that this does not hinder its primary strategy. This means that the man who loves his wife and their children may find it difficult to resist the temptation of a brief sexual adventure. And so, even in a happy marriage, both partners can sometimes "break" the power of this primitive reproductive stress. (C. 2009, Telegraph. Co. Uk translation Anna Bissanti)
