In a perceptive analysis of diverse source material, the essays of
the late Uriel Tal in this volume uncover the dynamics of the
secularization of religion, and the sacralization of politics in
the Nazi era. Through a process of inversion of meaning, concepts
such as race, blood, soil, state, nation and Fuhrer were brought
into the realm of faith, mission, salvation, sacredness and myth,
thereby acquiring absolute significance. Within this Nazi
worldview, the Jew epitomised the arch enemy, both as a symbol and
as the concrete embodiment of all that Nazism sought to negate:
Western civilisation, monotheism, critical rationalism and
humanism.
