The false Messiah in Yiddish literature : a comparison between two dramatic worksBen-Shach, Jane Respitz January 1990 (has links)
This thesis discusses the role of the "false Messiah" in modern Yiddish Literature. / The figure of the Messiah in Jewish religious imagination signifies the prophetic yearning for redemption at the end of days, but it also provoked hopes in a strong leader who will bring about social and political redemption. Based on historical models, literature from the twelfth to the twentieth century addressed these "false Messiahs" and in the modern period used them to define and illustrate contemporary catastrophe. / Shlomo Molcho by American Yiddish poet Aaron Glanz-Leyeles and Prince Reuveni by Soviet Yiddish author David Bergelson are two twentieth century poetic historic dramas based on two messianic figures of the sixteenth century. These two modern works are compared in relation to the respective authors' life and times, political and aesthetic outlook, and dramatic powers. The comparison shows the usefulness of the "false Messiah" in dramatizing and expressing difficult contemporary issues.

Previous issue date: 2013-03-07 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The book of the prophet Dêutero-Isaiah approaches that Javé comes to console its people exiled in Babylonia. Foreign king Cyrus, in the text of Is 45,1-7 is intitled of Messiahs de Javé. Therefore, this research has as objective to reflect on the messianic heading attribution to king Cyrus, in the context of the Babylonian exile. For this, I analyze some contributions of diverse authors and authors of the Biblical area, exploring the diversity of analyses on this subject.
It has many interpretations on the meaning of the messianic heading attributed to the king Cyrus, between them, it has who defines Cyrus as the Messiahs de Javé, that is, Cyrus as liberating of the exiled ones and not as the substitute of the messianic hope in a Messiahs proceeding from the house of David. In this work, I still argue has messianic hope, manifest in the exilic period and after-exilic, detaching the faith that the messianic communities exerted in these periods. At last, I analyze the messianic of the neo-testamentary communities after-macabaicas and in the attempt discovering if Cyrus was one messianic figure, in these periods. / O livro do profeta Dêutero-Isaías aborda que Javé vem consolar seu povo exilado na Babilônia. O rei estrangeiro Ciro, no texto de Is 45,1-7 é intitulado de Messias de Javé. Portanto, esta pesquisa tem como objetivo refletir sobre o título messiânico atribuído ao rei Ciro, no contexto do exílio babilônico. Para isto, analiso algumas contribuições de diversos autores e autoras da área bíblica, explorando a diversidade de pesquisas sobre este tema.
Há muitas interpretações sobre o significado do título messiânico atribuído ao rei Ciro, entre elas, há quem define Ciro como o Messias de Javé, ou seja, Ciro como libertador dos exilados e não como o substituto da esperança messiânica em um Messias proveniente da casa de Davi.
Neste trabalho, discuto ainda a esperança messiânica, manifesta no período exílico e pós-exílico, destacando a fé que as comunidades messiânicas exerciam nestes períodos. Enfim, analiso o messianismo das comunidades pós-macabaicas e neo-testamentárias na tentativa de descobrir se Ciro era uma figura messiânica, nestes períodos.

Challenging messianism and apocalyptism : a study of the three surviving Messiahs, their related commonalities, problematic issues and the beliefs surrounding themKrawitz, Lilian 11 1900 (has links)
The thesis is concerned with two issues, modern messiahs and their appeal, namely the highly successful Rebbe M.M. Schneerson from Chabad; and hostile, modern day, militant messianists and their beliefs, namely the USA Christian evangelicals and their rapture belief. The study directs attention at the three successful (in the sense that their movements survived their deaths) Jewish Messiahs, the 1st century Jesus, the 17th century Sabbatai Sevi and the present day, but recently deceased (1994) Rebbe Schneerson. The focus in the study falls on the latter two Jewish Messiahs, especially Rebbe Schneerson and Chabad, from Crown Heights, New York, whose messianic beliefs and conduct the thesis has been able to follow in real time. The thesis argues that Rebbe Schneerson and Chabad‟s extreme messianic beliefs and praxis, and the marked similarities that exist between all three Jewish Messiahs and their followers indicate that Chabad will probably, over time, become another religion removed from Judaism.
The thesis notes that the three Jewish Messiahs share a similar messiah template, the “„suffering servant‟ messiah” template. The thesis argues that this template is related to the wide appeal and success of these three Jewish messiahs, as it offers their followers the option of vicarious atonement which relieves people from dealing with their own transgressions and permits people to evade the demanding task of assuming personal accountability for all their actions, including their transgressions.
The recommendations in this thesis are prompted by the “wall of deafening silence” which is the result of political correctness and the “hands off religion” position, that prevents debate or censure of hostile militant messianism, despite the inherent dangers and high cost attached to the praxis of hostile, militant messianism and militant messianists‟ belief in exclusive apocalyptic scenarios, in modern, multicultural and democratic societies. The thesis argues this situation is not tenable and that it needs to be addressed, especially where modern day, hostile, militant messianists, unlike their predecessors at Qumran, now have access to the military and to military hardware, including nuclear warheads, and are able to hasten the End Times should they simply choose to do so. / Old Testament and Ancient Near Eastern Studies / D.

Messiahs and martyrs : religion in selected novels of Frank Herbert's Dune chroniclesSingh, Sanjana 2012 November 1900 (has links)
The focus of this dissertation is Frank Herbert‘s use of messiahs and martyrs in selected
novels of the Dune Chronicles. I make connections with Herbert‘s studies, inspirations and
background to his treatment of religion, establishing the translation of these ideas in the texts.
To identify and study every aspect of religion in the series is impossible; however, I will
include other features that I deem important to my understanding of the religious theme in
these texts. I intend to scrutinize these novels to find evidence of Herbert‘s claim that he
studied religion at great length. I will also observe Herbert‘s attitude to and engagement with
religion in the Dune Chronicles / English Studies / M.A. (English Studies)
