Abstrakt

Niniejszy artykuł jest próbą udowodnienia, że sukces Reuchlina w ratowaniu żydowskich ksiąg przed zniszczeniem był większej wagi, niż zwykle przypisują mu historycy. Walka Reuchlina o zachowanie Talmudu i innych żydowskich ksiąg toczyła się w społeczeństwie dotkniętym rasizmem, głównie antysemityzmem rasowym, zjawiskiem słabo rozpoznanym i najczęściej negowanym przez badaczy średniowiecznej i wczesnonowożytnej Europy. Podstawy tego rasizmu zostały zarysowane w artykule. Chociaż Reuchlin nie zdawał sobie sprawy ze znaczenia swojej obrony Żydów z perspektywy walki z rasizmem, można jednak myśleć o nim jak o Martinie Lutherze Kingu walczącym z dyskryminacją rasową wobec określonej mniejszości. Pięćsetna rocznica śmierci Reuchlina, która przypadnie latem 2022 roku, jest doskonałą okazją do uczczenia stworzenia przez niego wyjątkowej koncepcji Żydów, a w gruncie rzeczy ludzkości, w XVI-wiecznej Europie.
