Abstract

In 1918, Germany was experiencing a counterbalancing revitalisation of cultural nationalism, successor of Schopenhauer’s reception phenomenom from the mid-nineteenth century that tried to respond to an identity crisis through the identification of an internal enemy (Judaism). In this paper, we test this hypothesis through the analysis of the controversy around Schopenhauer-Gesellschaft resulting from Maria Groener’s pamphlet Schopenhauer und die Juden (1920).
