    Includes bibliographical references (pages 241-247) and index

    All that is solid melts into ink -- German Jews and the writing of modern life -- Karl Kraus and the Jewish self-hatred question -- Mirror-man -- Messianic journalism? Benjamin and Scholem read Die Fackel -- Conclusion: The afterlife of anti-journalism

    Reitter's study of Kraus's writings situates them in the context of fin-de-siècle German-Jewish intellectual history. He argues that rather than stemming from anti-Semitism, Kraus' attacks constituted a constructive critique of mainstream German-Jewish strategies for assimilation

    When rabbis became novelists : the emergence of Jewish literature in nineteenth-century Germany -- Under the sword of the Spanish inquisition : the Sephardic legacy and the making of middlebrow classics -- Leopold Kompert and the pleasures of nostalgia : ghetto fiction and the creation of a usable past -- Middlebrow culture in pursuit of romance : love, fiction and the virtues of marrying in -- Middlebrow fiction and the making of modern orthodoxy

    This work offers a comprehensive investigation of Jews writing in German, which sought to navigate between tradition and modernity, between Jewish history and the German present, and between the fading walls of the ghetto and the promise of a new identity as members of a German bourgeoisie

    "Shows how Adler, Wander, Hilsenrath, and Klüger intertwine transgressive political criticism with the shadow of trauma, revealing new perspectives on canon formation and exclusion in postwar German literature. How did German-speaking Holocaust survivors pursue literary careers in an often-indifferent postwar society? How did their literary life writings reflect their postwar struggles? This monograph focuses on four authors who bore literary witness to the Shoah - H. G. Adler, Fred Wander, Edgar Hilsenrath, and Ruth Klüger. It analyzes their autofictional, critical, and autobiographical works written between the early 1950s and 2015, which depict their postwar experiences of writing, publishing, and publicizing Holocaust testimony. These case studies shed light on the devastating aftermaths of the Holocaust in different contexts. Adler depicts his attempts to overcome marginalization as a writer in Britain in the 1950s. Wander reflects on his failure to find a home either in postwar Austria or in the GDR. Hilsenrath satirizes his struggles as an emigrant to the US in the 1960s and after returning to Berlin in the 1980s. Finally, in her 2008 memoir, Ruth Klüger follows up her earlier, highly impactful memoir of the concentration camps by narrating the misogyny and antisemitism she experienced in US and German academia. Helen Finch analyzes how these under-researched texts intertwine transgressive political criticism with the shadow of trauma. Drawing on scholarship on Holocaust testimony, transnational memory, and affect theory, her book reveals new perspectives on canon formation and exclusion in postwar German literature"--

    This book traces the German-Hebrew contact zones in which Gershom Scholem, Werner Kraft and Ludwig Strauss lived and produced their creative work in early twentieth-century Germany and later in British Mandate Palestine after their voluntary or forced migration in the 1920s and 1930s. Set in shifting historical contexts and literary debates – the notion of the German vernacular nation, Hebraism and Jewish Revival in Weimar Germany, the crisis of language in modernist literature, and the fledgling multilingual communities in Jerusalem, the writings of Scholem, Kraft and Strauss emerge as unique forms of counterlanguage. The three chapters of the book are dedicated to Scholem’s Hebraist lamentation, Kraft’s Germanist steadfastness and Strauss’s polyglot dialogue, respectively. The examination of their correspondences, diaries, scholarship and literary oeuvres demonstrates how counteractive writing practices helped confront concrete and metaphorical crises of language to produce compelling alternatives to literary silence, amnesia or paralysis that were prompted by cultural marginality and dislocation

    "No One's Witness investigates the poetics of witness in queerly monstrous forms, exploding the boundaries between testifying to what one "sees with one's very own eyes" and bearing witness to things and events beyond comprehension. In this work, Rachel Zolf deconstructs and reconfigures the last three lines of Romanian poet and Nazi holocaust survivor Paul Celan's poem "Aschenglorie" (Ashglory)- "No one / bears witness for the / witness"-word by word to investigate the poetic, ethico-political, and onto-epistemic limits of witnessing, whether in person or through literature and art"--

This monograph focuses on four authors who bore literary witness to the Shoah - H. G. Adler, Fred Wander, Edgar Hilsenrath, and Ruth Klüger. It analyzes their autofictional, critical, and autobiographical works written between the early 1950s and 2015, which depict their postwar experiences of writing, publishing, and publicizing Holocaust testimony. These case studies shed light on the devastating aftermaths of the Holocaust in different contexts. Adler depicts his attempts to overcome marginalization as a writer in Britain in the 1950s. Wander reflects on his failure to find a home either in postwar Austria or in the GDR. Hilsenrath satirizes his struggles as an emigrant to the US in the 1960s and after returning to Berlin in the 1980s. Finally, in her 2008 memoir, Ruth Klüger follows up her earlier, highly impactful memoir of the concentration camps by narrating the misogyny and antisemitism she experienced in US and German academia. Helen Finch analyzes how these under-researched texts intertwine transgressive political criticism with the shadow of trauma. Drawing on scholarship on Holocaust testimony, transnational memory, and affect theory, her book reveals new perspectives on canon formation and exclusion in postwar German literature"--

    "No One's Witness investigates the poetics of witness in queerly monstrous forms, exploding the boundaries between testifying to what one "sees with one's very own eyes" and bearing witness to things and events beyond comprehension. In this work, Rachel Zolf deconstructs and reconfigures the last three lines of Romanian poet and Nazi holocaust survivor Paul Celan's poem "Aschenglorie" (Ashglory)- "No one / bears witness for the / witness"-word by word to investigate the poetic, ethico-political, and onto-epistemic limits of witnessing, whether in person or through literature and art"--

    This book traces the German-Hebrew language contact-zones in which Gershom Scholem, Werner Kraft and Ludwig Strauss created in Germany and in Jerusalem in the 1920s and 30s. Set in the contexts of cultural marginality, modernist literature, and linguistic dislocation, Barouch exposes the writings of Scholem, Kraft and Strauss as unique forms of counterlanguage: Hebraist lamentation, Germanist steadfastness and polyglot dialogue, respectively.
