The relationship between Jews and non-Jews is one of humankind’s most complex
encounters and oldest conflicts. André E. Mozes builds his ground-breaking
concept, the New Philosemitism Paradigm, for solving – or at least easing –
this conflict, and does this with visionary creativity, historical and
scholarly thoroughness and engineering precision. Frequently also with quite a
bit of wit, refreshing for such a somber subject. The New Philosemitism
Paradigm declares that, while dignified Holocaust remembrance and
uncompromising vigilance in front of Antisemitism – and other forms of racism
– remain imperative, we need more searching, publicizing and fostering all
past and present good co-existence too; interest in each other, co-operation,
mutual inspiration and friendship between Gentiles and Jews, of material and
spiritual nature. This balanced approach, Mozes suggests, will improve the
life of Jews and non-Jews alike, both together and each side separately; and
make Holocaust remembrance and education against Antisemitism more effective,
easier to teach and to learn. This book is about the better periods of co-
existence (not ignoring the horrifying chapter of the Shoah, but presenting
also heroic life-savings – more than we are usually aware of); about the Jews
themselves, and life with them as seen in classical literature. Finally, it
offers a colourful bouquet of varied contemporary pieces: a dozen of Mozes’
own writings, and others written for this volume by invited renowned writers,
scholars and independent thinkers of all walks of life.
