What is The Oberammergau Passion Play : a lance against civilization about?
<p>People of Oberammergau have received highest praise for their fidelity through 350 years. But Friedman asks questions that must be addressed: "Can the traditional text be reconciled with the Gospels? Does the play generate harmful, stereotypic images of Jews? Is the Passion truly a 'hymn of reconciliation’ or is it, as Nietzsche said of Wagner’s <i>Meistersinger,</i> a 'lance against civilization’?”</p>
