methusalix †: „a timeless Hypernarrativ of the Jew enmity “
Toaff sees itself suspended to meanwhile violent criticism and means, to have been misunderstood. In an interview for Mabat, on 11 February he wanted to appease the Israeli main newscast and meant, not from Christian children gemordeten by Jews but only of the use of Christian blood for medical purposes to have spoken. That makes the Causa Toaff not better, sounds however a little convincing in view of the reißerischen title. That he also still meant opposite Haaretz tags on it, „the whole world becomes it also straight of the high art of considered speech, for this book kreuzigen “, does not witness.
January 2007:
„Pasque di sangue “- Ariel Toaff and the legend of the ritual murder
A comment
The Italian historian Ariel Toaff wrote a new book, and it called „a scandal book “its colleague Elena Loewenthal in „La Stampa “. This title is gladly assigned in Italy, but in the available case it seems indeed earned (Ariel Toaff, Pasque di sangue. Ebrei d'Europa e omicidi rituali, Bologna: IL Mulino 2007). But a scarce view of the background is sufficient.
Because if there is such a thing like a timeless Hypernarrativ of the Jew enmity, then it is that one from „the ritual murder “. Negatively calm Kreuzesmysterium, blood-greedy usury, healing of konstitutiven physical physical defects, weltumkrallendes aspiration for power, zionistische aggression, - all pious chroniclers, merciless Seelsorger, eifernde society critics, anti-Semitic lampoonists, murderous ruling powers and our tags also Soaps of Arab previous evening programs with the legend of the Jewish ritual murder illustrated that. The blood accusation is all-side and all time compatibly, a true Passepartout. The refutation of this walking and change legend is just as easy as in the long run also offering no prospects. Because that was always like that: who wants to believe such Mär, of it could so easily not be diverted, above all not by scientists. All the more gratefully the scenery takes alleged or actual, particularly since academically confirmations of their „knowledge “up, and therefore can also each historical occupation with the topic, setting in still so far times, authorized equal to the political issue advisablely. One has that already in the 90's at the harsh and in the thing often covered reactions to Israel Yuvals attempt of a new interpretation of arising the ritual murder fable in 12. Century to read off know. The proven Israeli Mediävist did not have by any means a revisionistic view would bring in at that time wants, but only expressed that outside characteristics could have been like the reddish color of the Charoset and some other moments of the Pessah Haggadah, which brought Christians in their eager ignorance on the idea Jews used blood for ritual purposes. After Yuval the wrong inspection would then have produced devastating consequences, which justifies moment thus the inexorable career of the cruel Mär.
Which one could actually state against Yuval, is its narrow-led argumentation aligned to effect-rich realization. The same is valid also from Magdalena Schultz's just as one-sided (although for methodically unequally much weaker) psychologisierenden attempt to attribute the ritual murder fable to displacement processes of the author side with which the cases of abused and killed children were put underneath for the sake of simplicity the Jews. For such interpretations proofs may not to be found be able in individual cases, as comprehensive explanation are sufficient them however. Because as soon as one leaves the methodical tunnel view behind itself, it becomes clear that „the Jewish “motives are all together older and from internal-Christian connections and needs, more exactly: from the self-dynamics of the Inkriminierungsrhetorik opposite Christian dissidents („Häretiker “) originate. There we already find in the 11. Century, completely so as if the chroniclers would have attended the meeting mad Christian, with minutiös cruel details gespickte „reports “from ritual murders at children for the execution of negative Eucharist and other more, therefore be enough before around the center 12. Century of the Englishmen Thomas von Monmouth the death of the boy Wilhelm von Norwich in the figure of the ritual murder interpreted and the authority for it the Jew attributed. The dead child only thus let itself raise in the honour of the altars in the contradiction to the canonical standard, where otherwise nevertheless only faith witnesses in the full possession of their mental forces arrived. The anger, how it poured 1994 straight from the older scholar generation in Israel over Yuval, was by sections excessive, in addition, understandable, the explosive assumption had written, Jew-hostile conceptions down of the Christians nevertheless there could their causes in Jewish rituals have. Hardly it interested that it would have concerned after Yuval a devastating misunderstanding. Because - and that was it, which critics such as Breuer or butcher activities - such refinement do not interest in the global headline world, let alone with stood Jew enemies. The criticism at Yuval was valid for its study, than rather thus in the long run less what careless readers could pick out there or also in-read bad-willing readers.
If we follow the messages of the past days, then us with „Pasque di sangue “- „blood Easter “to German now straight this version was spoken actively, and it proves also still in the best way „authorized “: The author „of the scandal book “is son of the former Roman rabbi of high repute Elio Toaff and chair owner to the religious bar Ilan university raised over all doubts in Ramat Gan/Israel. Toaff wants 1475 proofs in the connection that notoriously admitted (and thoroughly it investigated) Trienter blood accusation of the yearly to have found that „a minority of fundamentalist Jews aschkenasischer origin would have actually committed “such victims. Not only some inaccuracies - „the Inquisition “, which is to have discovered everything, did not give it yet at all in such a way 1475 - to entitle to skepticism in relation to the alleged discoveries of the historian. It does not assume that the documents of the investigation authorities were extorted by torture in Trient and elsewhere, turns into also particularly after Trient directed papal envoys dei Giudici denied at that time to the whole procedure any legal validity. Professor Toaff commits off here error, which is to avoid to learn the thing of pro min arene. Even if after the thorough work document turned by Wolfgang's loyalty and Ronnie Pochia Hsia already had not again opened now Toaff to Trient, Treviso or Portobuffolè still any zigfach and, it must remain guilty the answer to the question, from where it wanted to refer the proof for actual events with so more one-sided and in the truest sense of word of forced source situation.
However Toaff seems to have few favours at such standards of the science of history. In an interview with the Israeli daily paper it indicated Haaretz from 12 February in investigation minutes to the Trienter process detail to have found which did not originate from „the culture of the Christian judges “and therefore Jewish origin would have to be. It understands both societies as strictly separated units, which would have communicated not with one another and would have particularly existed in those not knowledge and smattering of knowledge in each case over those different side. If one would get involved in its logic, then everything would have to be correct, what was ever stated against Jews and the many other different. Investigation minutes of the judicial authorities, particularly in the time of the Pestprogrome with their murderous well poisoning reproaches in 14. Century, are fully of such smattering of knowledge, paired with eager-self-willed interpretations. Sometimes it seems, as if the future prosecutors themselves would also have sat table and from all once seeing and Unverstandenen their own, fantastic rhyme would on occasion then have made themselves. The torture did then a remaining, in order to promote further „details “to day. However Toaff takes in such a way logged at one time for cash coin. _ also have it, if it widen its close view only a a small little have, can register, that the activity the of the circle around the Trienter „ists “- bishop Johannes brook relationship to the campaign the of the Dominikaners Heinrich Kramer „Institoris “(„the hammer “) have - of the latter be valid for the Brixener bishop as Psychopath, which he thus its diocese refer. All this did not reach Toaff. If it would go according to it, then the Jews would have had to do hastier over centuries nothing at all to make too own than in acting the role straight of those caricatures the Christians first in argument with their internal opponents had sketched themselves.
Toaff sees itself suspended to meanwhile violent criticism and means, to have been misunderstood. In an interview for Mabat, on 11 February he wanted to appease the Israeli main newscast and meant, not from Christian children gemordeten by Jews but only of the use of Christian blood for medical purposes to have spoken. That makes the Causa Toaff not better, sounds however a little convincing in view of the reißerischen title. That he also still meant opposite Haaretz tags on it, „the whole world becomes it also straight of the high art of considered speech, for this book kreuzigen “, does not witness.
The findings are devastating: Either this book of the complete naivety of the historian is to be attributed, who so far hardly once beyond the edge of plate of Italian-Jewish social history, or it is the well-conceived, but deeply cynical attempt to provide over for closely found experts outside hearing. If one sees, how sensitive topics under the conditions of the medium company function, then Toaff may be pleased soon about invitations to talk shows here and there - I guess/advise however to the Weiterzappen. Because the film script is long admits and in the fifth Remake surely no longer funny: The prophets of the cultural maintenance will verkündigen a new historian controversy, and the public will listen strained „to the Jew “, who must know „it. “Professional ones and other message forums rush into with pieces of news of the scandal book, in an anti-Israeli blog Toaff safety company are already recommended („… They know nevertheless, the Mossad… “).
From scientific side to all that hardly something will have to be contributed. The lively Mär was already manifold disproved. Also the Roman rabbi Di Segni officiating at present could actually only repeat in its answering at Toaff, what had confessed already in former times once in the report of a commission of inquiry: that the consumption and other use of blood against the Thora offence. That is however already one while ago. The commission had been used 1236 by emperors Friedrich II. for the investigation of the Fuldaer blood accusation, and their results found confirmation in the Jew protection bull Pope Innozenz' IV. of 1247. One has might expect Toaff from the historian that he would have received at least.

Debt are thus those, which point today with the finger to the Vatikan.
That was with the genuine fundamentalists of any Couleur always like that. (That is by the way also a safe characteristic of a sect; beside „encircles its from enemies “) why should with catholic zealots different be? Nevertheless only humanly the debt is to be always looked for with others. To say Psychohygiene in such a way. Where would we come there, if we would really take all our debt on us? To hell! And who wants there already?
