Abstract:
Discussing the evolution of the German perception of Jews, points to some irrational antisemitic stereotypes which strongly affected German popular culture, from the ritual murder allegation and the myth of the Wandering Jew to modern racist antisemitism. Sees Freud's theories of psychoanalysis as his response to Austrian and German antisemitism. Rejected by society, Jews became theorists of the unconscious and of the repressed psyche. Unlike Freud, Siegmund Heinz Foulkes, a psychoanalyst from a socially-accepted German Jewish middle-class family, was a promoter of group analysis and was more familiar with social, not individual, aspects of antisemitism.
