Abstract
“The loyal subject”, by Heinrich Mann, while seeking to deal with the relations of German society with the imperial construct, showing through excessive authority and selective morality and appearance a “satirical representation of power”, also presents in his literary journey other elements that make up this society as a whole, such as the cultural and religious precepts that govern it. Based on this assumption, the present work aims to explore the antisemitic quality rooted in pre-Nazi German culture, based on the society exposed in that book, through documentary analysis. Therefore, at first, a brief exposition - based on a bibliographic review - of the author and the work will be made, finally giving space for an analysis about the religiosity and antisemitism present in the narrative. Through this analysis, it was possible to observe that antisemitism is represented in the book as a cultural characteristic of pre-Nazi Germany and, moreover, as a characteristic element of a positive expression of religiosity, being a legacy of the religious construct that had long been formed.
