Moses and Homer explores the eradication of the Jewish tradition from German intellectual history between 1770 and 1800 and analyzes the numerous ruptures triggered by the exclusion of the representatives of Judaism from the German-speaking literary world.
The closing decades of the eighteenth century were distinguished by a burgeoning admiration for Ancient Greece in Germany, while at the same time Judaism which had begun to open itself to European Enlightenment was vehemently opposed in literary and intellectual circles. Goethe’s and Schiller’s aggressive anti-Judaism was levied against the Biblical legacy of God’s revelation at Sinai and his legendary mediator Moses. Prompted by Johann Joachim Winckelmann’s paean to Homeric culture, German Classics unfolded a new legitimizing discourse in which polytheism served to position the 'productive individual' and 'growing nature' as preeminent categories in modernity. The rationale was to replace monotheism with a religion of nature, a shift that had far-reaching consequences well into the twentieth century. In their distinctive ways, Moses Mendelssohn and Heinrich Heine countered by attempting to salvage the vision of a German-Jewish dialog. Additionally, a broad range of cultural reflexion is examined, including relevant contributions by Hölderlin, Herder, Hegel, Buber, Baeck, Freud, Benn, Kantorowicz, Auerbach und Heidegger. The volume traces the ideological battle waged against monotheism, nurtured by an early rejection of Jewish intellectualism and a steadfast focus on classicism, and its impact on the militant antisemitism of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. These intellectual developments culminated in the racial politics of the Nazi terror regime. Ultimately, the Shoah effaced the Jewish monotheistic tradition from the cultural memory of contemporary Germans.
This book is of interest to scholars of Antique Classicism, German and Jewish intellectual history, and European antisemitism.

Memmo's summaries are gold before exams. I don't have to re-read 800 pages two weeks before — just the important parts.
The AI chat has saved me the night before an exam more than once. I just keep asking until I get it — no waiting on a study group to reply.
The quizzes hit exactly what I need to know. Memmo tracks what I get stuck on — so I only practice what's worth it.
Flashcards with spaced repetition are magic. Memmo knows when I'm about to forget something and brings it back.
The AI podcasts are my favorite. I listen on my way to school and get a recap without sitting at a computer.
