19. Yüzyıl Alman-Yahudi Oryantalizminde İslâm Algısı

Bu çalışmada 19. Yüzyıl Alman-Yahudi oryantalistlerin İslâm algısı konu edilmektedir. Giriş ve sonuç hariç dört başlıktan oluşan çalışmada ilk olarak Alman oryantalizmi hakkında genel hatlarıyla bilgi verilmiş, emperyalizm ve sömürge faaliyetleriyle ilişkisi sorgulanmış ve İngiliz ve Fransız gibi diğer oryantalist geleneklerle bağlantısına dikkat çekilmiştir. İkinci başlıkta Alman-Yahudi oryantalistlerin 19. yüzyılda içinde bulundukları dinî ve sosyo-kültürel konumları incelenmiş ve İslâm araştırmalarına katılmalarının arkasında yatan etkenler tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Onların, siyasi etkenlerin yanı sıra daha ziyade birtakım dinî ve sosyo-kültürel etkenlerle İslâm araştırmalarına katıldıkları ortaya konulmaya çalışılmıştır. Son iki başlıkta ise onların İslâm algısı mercek altına alınmış, İslâm, Hz. Muhammed ve Kur’an hakkındaki düşünceleri sunulmuştur. Burada temel olarak, asırlardır süregelen ana akım Hıristiyan-Batı oryantalizmi geleneği içerisinde konumları ve bu gelenekten onları ayıran hususiyetler inceleme konusu yapılmıştır.

Perception of Islam in 19th Century German-Jewish Orientalism

In this study, the perception of Islam by 19th century German-Jewish orientalists is discussed. The study consists of four titles, excluding the introduction and conclusion. Firstly, general information about German orientalism is given, its relationship with imperialism and colonial activities is questioned, and attention is drawn to its connection with other orientalist traditions such as British and French. According to the researchers, the relationship of German orientalists with colonial activities was not as intense as the members of other orientalist traditions, so political factors remained in the background in their research, and they were able to adopt a more objective point of view. This was explained by Germany's relatively late participation in colonial activities. Therefore, it is important to determine the religious and socio-cultural factors in their perception of Islam. The beginning of German orientalism's involvement in Middle Eastern and Islamic studies dates to the first half of the 19th century. This was mostly carried out by the hand of German-Jewish orientalists. Thanks to them, there was a boom in orientalist Islamic studies, and this situation continued until the Second World War. In other words, German-Jewish orientalists had a vital importance for both German and Western orientalism. In the second section, the religious and socio-cultural positions of German-Jewish orientalists in the 19th century were examined, and the factors behind their participation in Islamic studies were tried to be deter-mined. It has been tried to reveal that they participated in Islamic studies with some religious and socio-cultural factors as well as political factors. While participating in Islamic studies, the main starting points were determined, and in this context, their thoughts and studies on both Judaism and Christianity were pointed out.
