Abstract:
In agreement with Freud, the author characterizes the unconscious structure of ecclesiastic and of contemporary racist anti-Semitism as paranoid projections of unconscious guilt feelings and of profound narcissistic injury. Chasseguet-Smirgel's thesis concerning the perverse character of anti-Semitism and Ostow's attempt to relate anti-Semitism to apocalyptic ideas are discussed as well.
