I28-R145-14596_oai2025-11-17 Acevedo Sosa, María Elisa 2024-05-02 In In Flaccum Philo defines as στάσις the anti-Jewish attack of the year AD 38 by which the rights of residence and free worship that the Jews claimed to possess since the founding of Alexandria are violated. One of the main arguments used by the Greeks and Egyptians is the illegitimacy of the possession of rights by the Jews because of their status as foreigners. Consequently, specialized historiographical studies have focused their analysis on the debate on the citizenship status of the Jews in Alexandria in the first century. The present work will move from this perspective of study in order to focus on the understanding of the philosophical and ideological implications of Philo’s interpretation regarding the anti-Jewish offensive. For this, the concept of στάσις that comes from classical Greek philosophy will be analyzed. This term expresses in Plato and Aristotle the factious struggle between fellow citizens for rights and privileges with a violence similar to that of a war against foreigners. Thus, an attempt will be made to demonstrate that Philo uses the term στάσις in the classical Greek philosophical sense to demonstrate that anti-Jewish violence is an internal war and, therefore, an attempt to subvert the Roman legal order. En Contra Flaco Filón define como στάσις el ataque antijudío del año 38 d.C. por el cual se vulneran los derechos de residencia y libre culto que los judíos afirmaban poseer desde la fundación de Alejandría. Uno de los principales argumentos esgrimidos por parte de griegos y egipcios es la ilegitimidad de la posesión de derechos por parte de los judíos a causa de su condición de extranjeros. Por consiguiente, los estudios historiográficos especializados han centrado su análisis en el debate sobre el estatus de ciudadanía de los judíos en la Alejandría del siglo I. El presente trabajo se correrá de esa perspectiva de estudio con el fin de hacer foco en la comprensión de las implicancias filosóficas e ideológicas de la interpretación de Filón a propósito de la ofensiva antijudía. Para ello, se analizará el concepto de στάσις que procede de la filosofía griega clásica. Dicho término expresa en Platón y Aristóteles la lucha facciosa entre conciudadanos por derechos y privilegios con una violencia semejante a la de una guerra contra los extranjeros. Así pues, se intentará demostrar que Filón utiliza el término στάσις en el sentido filosófico griego clásico para demostrar que la violencia antijudía es una guerra interna y, por tanto, un intento de subversión del orden legal romano. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/petm/article/view/14596 10.34096/petm.v45.n1.14596 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/petm/article/view/14596/13137 Patristica et Mediævalia; Vol. 45 Núm. 1 (2024); 67-77 2683-9636 στάσις legalidad ilegalidad derechos cívicos extranjería στάσις legality illegality civic rights foreigner The Alexandrian Conflict of AD 38 as στάσις in Philo’s In Flaccum El conflicto alejandrino del 38 d.C. como στάσις en Contra Flaco de Filón info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=patris&d=14596_oai |
