Abstract

Orientalist Islamic studies lived its golden age in the 19th century. In this period when the works still used as the main reference sources were written, GermanJewish orientalists have an exceptional position. The involvement of GermanJewish orientalists in Islamic research has been more of a theological concern rather than a number of colonial and imperialist motives such as British and French orientalists. The “other” discourse applied to Islam was also applied to Judaism by the Christian-West at that time. German-Jewish scholars who wanted to save themselves and their religion from this situation participated in Islamic research. Thus, Islam was used as a tool; it is aimed to present a different Judaism to the European reader by positioning it against Christianity with the claim that Islam derives from Judaism. The works started under the leadership of Abraham Geiger created a rich literatüre and directed orientalist works for a long time.

Özet

Oryantalist İslam çalışmaları 19. yüzyılda altın çağını yaşamıştır. Günümüzde hala temel başvuru kaynakları olarak kullanılan eserlerin kaleme alındığı bu dönemde Alman-Yahudi oryantalistlerin müstesna bir konumu vardır. Alman-Yahudi oryantalistlerin İslam araştırmalarına dahil olmaları, İngiliz ve Fransız oryantalistler gibi birtakım kolonyal ve emperyalist saiklerden ziyade daha çok teolojik kaygılarla olmuştur. İslam’a uygulanan “öteki” söylemi aynı şekilde o dönemde Hristiyan-Batı tarafından Yahudiliğe de uygulanmaktaydı. Bu durumundan kendilerini ve dinlerini kurtarmak isteyen Alman-Yahudi araştırmacılar İslam araştırmalarına dahil olmuşlardır. Bunu yaparken kullandıkları en önemli araçlardan biri de İslam olmuştur. İslam gibi tek tanrıcılığa sıkı sıkıya bağlı ve düzenli hukuk sistemi olan bir dinin Yahudilik’ten türediği iddiası üzerinden Yahudilik Hristiyanlık karşısında konumlandırılarak Avrupalı okuyucuya sunulmak istenmiştir. Abraham Geiger öncülüğünde başlayan çalışmalar zengin bir literatür meydana getirmiş ve uzunca bir dönem oryantalist çalışmalara yön vermiştir
