Katsis and Helen Tolstoy. Jewishness in Russian Culture is devoted to new approaches and methods for the study of Jewish acculturation in Russian literature and its effects. It attempts to redefine criteria and borders of a discipline situated roughly between Judaica Rossica and Rossica Judaica. The monograph describes a series of important literary Russian-Jewish cultural events and figures belonging synchronically or diachronically to both disciplines. Thus it unites within a new conceptual framework the data accumulated by scholars and disciplines that exist separately in different research spaces that do not overlap, Jewish Studies and the history of Russian culture. The emerging picture shows the development of a historical plot along the axis of acculturation and anti-Semitism, accepting and/or trying to be accepted, being rejected and/or rejecting, and being within or without

A People Without a Homeland: The Jews in Russia in the 1840s /Mikhail Weisskopf -- Epilogue. The Further Evolution of the Jewish Theme /Mikhail Weisskopf. The Veil of Moses describes the creation of Russian romantic literary stereotypes which shaped the opinion of the Russian public on the Jews. These stereotypes in turn generated long-lasting habits of dealing with Jews and Jewish themes in Russian culture and politics. This volume introduces a formidable corpus of previously neglected evidence into the scholarship, namely, journalism and second- and third-rank prose. Journalism, influenced by more humane Western attitudes, reflected changes and presented a more objective picture of the Jews. It was the romantic prose, full of mythology and appealing to dark instincts that created the most odious anti-semitic clichés

    Preliminary Material -- Introduction -- Jews in Portugal and the Beginnings of Polemical Literature -- Portuguese Anti-Semitic Literary Production: Forms, Objectives, and Reception (17th – 18th Centuries) -- The New Christian Image -- Continuity and Change: The Different Currents of Anti-Jewish Literature -- Conclusions -- Annex 1: Inquisitorial Medals and Diplomas -- Annex 2: The Auto-da-Fé Sermon in Lisbon on May 5th, 1624 -- Sources and Bibliography -- Index of Names and Places. This book scrutinizes literary works based on Judaism, Jews and their descendants, written or printed by the Portuguese, from the forced conversion of Jews in 1497, until the ending of the distinction between New and Old Christians in 1773. It tries to understand what motivated this vast literary production, its different currents, and how they evolved. Additionally, it studies the image of New Christians and seeks the reasons for the perpetuation of this perception of Jewish descendants in the Early Modern Portuguese world. The Imaginary Synagogue seeks to identify which Jews and which ‘synagogue’ those authors constructed in their texts and their reasons for doing so, and offers conclusions on the self-affirmed Catholic importance of this literary current

    Biographical note: Marco Puschner, Nürnberger Zeitung

    Main description: Die national motivierte Judenfeindschaft beginnt in Deutschland nicht erst mit Richard Wagner oder den antisemitischen Schriften, die im Kaiserreich ab 1871 entstanden sind. Wie die Untersuchung zeigt, haben schon die Schriftsteller der romantischen Generation im frühen 19. Jahrhundert ihre Vorstellung von einem "deutschen Wesen0 in rigoroser Abgrenzung zu angeblichen jüdischen Charaktereigenschaften entworfen. Dies wird in der Studie anhand essayistischer, aber auch fiktionaler Texte unter anderem von Achim von Arnim und Clemens Brentano gezeigt

    Main description: The nationally motivated hostility towards Jews did not just start with Richard Wagner or the anti-Semitic writings produced in Imperial Germany from 1871 onwards. As the study shows, even the writers of the Romantic generation in the early 19th century drew up their idea of a 0German character0 which was rigorously delineated from alleged Jewish characteristics. This is shown in the study using both essayistic and fictional texts by Achim von Arnim and Clemens Brentano among others

    Review text: "Insgesamt hat Puschner Werk den Charakter eines Kompendiums und gehört in die Handbibliotheken aller Interessierten der Germanistik, der Philosophie und Geschichte des 18. und 19. Jahrhunderts in Deutschland."William Hiscott in: PaRDeS 15/2009 "In der Summe aber muss der Studie größtes Lob zugesprochen werden. Die Gründlichkeit, mit der Puschner die vorhandene Forschung berücksichtigt - allein sein Literaturverzeichnis umfasst mehr als 70 Seiten - erscheint ebenso mustergültig wie die Sachlichkeit, mit der er seine zum Teil im Widerspruch zur bisherigen Forschung stehenden Ergebnisse vorträgt."Hans-Joachim Hahn in: www.literaturkritik.de

    Main description: In den letzten Jahrzehnten ist George Tabori (* 1914) zu einem der meist gespielten Autoren der Theaterliteratur dieses Jahrhunderts und einem der meist gebetenen Regisseure der deutschsprachigen Bühnen geworden. Von der Theater- und Literaturwissenschaft wurde er zunächst nur sporadisch wahrgenommen. Erst in jüngerer Zeit hat sich diese Situation geändert. Der Band will den aktuellen Diskussionsstand belegen und erweitern. Er bezieht sich auf die Theaterarbeit und die Dramen Taboris, die dem Thema der Shoah gelten. Auch in der vergleichenden Perspektive mit Bertolt Brecht, Samuel Beckett und Peter Weiss wird das theatrale Verfahren Taboris in seiner besonderen Bedeutung für das Theater der Gegenwart dargestellt und diskutiert

    Main description: In the last ten years, George Tabori (* 1914) has been one of the dramatic authors most frequently performed this century in Germany and also one of the most sought-after directors in German-speaking theatres. This contrasts with the neglect he has been accorded in literary and drama studies. Only very recently has there been any notable change in this situation. This volume sets out to record and contribute to the ongoing discussion of Tabori's achievements, both his stage productions and his own plays, on the subject of the shoah. A comparative angle is also taken on his work, examining and discussing the significance of his theatrical style for contemporary drama with reference to authors such as Bertolt Brecht, Samuel Beckett and Peter Weiss

    Main description: Beautiful Jewesses have been among the stock figures featuring in literature in German for centuries. The present study is the first consistent attempt to typify the figure of the 'beautiful Jewess' by examining 70 novels and shorter narratives from four centuries. The 'beautiful Jewess' topos is the expression of a non-Jewish and non-female view, i.e. a view from the outside. The correspondingly stereotyped features of the literary image of the Jewess are traceable from Grimmelshausen to Heinrich Mann. In the history of this motif, we also find a reflection of the problematic nature of Jewish emancipation and assimilation in the course of time. Reference to public discourse on Jewish women and their role in state and society permits a reconstruction of the foundations underlying contemporary attitudes and collective opinion-forming mechanisms determining the image of the Jewess in literary works and the reception accorded to such figures

    Main description: Schöne jüdische Frauengestalten gehören über Jahrhunderte hinweg zum Figurenarsenal der deutschsprachigen Literatur. An siebzig Romanen und Erzählungen aus vier Jahrhunderten wird hier erstmals im Zusammenhang der literarische Typus der 'Schönen Jüdin' dargestellt. Der sprachliche Topos 'Die Schöne Jüdin' ist Ausdruck einer (nichtjüdischen und nichtweiblichen) Außensicht; die entsprechend stereotypen Züge des literarischen Bilds der Jüdin lassen sich von Grimmelshausen bis Heinrich Mann nachweisen. In der Motivgeschichte spiegelt sich zugleich der problematische Verlauf der jüdischen Emanzipations- und Assimilationsgeschichte. Ausblicke auf den öffentlichen Diskurs über jüdische Frauen und ihre Rolle in Staat und Gesellschaft ermöglichen die Rekonstruktion der zeitgenössischen Verständnisvoraussetzungen und kollektiven Urteilsmechanismen, die die literarische Gestaltung jüdischer Frauenfiguren und ihre Rezeption bestimmen

    This richly suggestive book examines the common bonds of thought and shared manner of expression that unite Jewish writers working in America, Eastern Europe, and Israel. Murray Baumgarten shows how Jewish traditions are reflected in the themes and narrative style of a diverse group of writers, including Saul Bellow, Henry Roth, Sholom Aleichen, Isaac Babel, and S.Y. Agnon. Baumgarten finds in these writers a distinctive and symbolic use of the urban scene arid style of life—whether the city is Brooklyn, Chicago, Vienna, Warsaw, Odessa, or Jerusalem. He examines the pariah stance, and the different kinds of tension between freedom from communal ties and the pull of traditional culture. He demonstrates how Yiddish can flavor and inflect the syntax, how scripture can permeate the thinking and narrative devices, in writers of various nationalities

    Notes:

    Includes bibliographical references and index

    Main description: Thomas Mann's (1875-1955) engagement with contemporary Jews and his epic portrayals of them trace the ups and downs of history and reveal them as such. In his work, the Jews are given a key role in the debates of the 20th century. From Naphta and Krokowski in »The Magic Mountain« and Joseph and Moses there are connecting links and analogies between Germans and Jews, all the way up to Fitelberg and Breisacher in »Doctor Faustus«. The chronological treatment foregrounds both continuity and change in Mann's views, the mixture of fascination and prejudice they reveal, and their ongoing differentiation and refinement. The study (first published in French in 1995) deepens our awareness of the structural unity of Mann's oeuvre and makes a contribution to research on mentalities

    Main description: Thomas Manns (1875-1955) Auseinandersetzungen mit den Juden seiner Zeit und seine epischen Darstellungen folgen dem Auf und Ab der Geschichte und enthüllen sie. Die Juden erhalten bei ihm eine Schlüsselstellung in den Debatten des 20. Jahrhunderts. Von Naphta und Krokowski im »Zauberberg« über Joseph und Moses führen Verbindungslinien mit Analogien zwischen Juden und Deutschen bis zu Fitelberg und Breisacher im »Doktor Faustus«. Das chronologische Vorgehen hebt Kontinuität und Wandlung von Ansichten hervor, die von Faszination und Vorurteilen geprägt, sich im Laufe der Zeit verfeinern. Diese Studie (die französische Orginalausgabe erschien 1995) vertieft den Blick für die strukturelle Einheit des Gesamtwerkes und leistet einen Beitrag zur Erforschung der Mentalitäten

    Main description: This is the first academic treatment of the life and work of Henry William Katz (1906-1992) who has been forgotten by scholars and critics for fifty years although his first novel won him the Heinrich-Heine-Prize in exile in 1937. From a combined literary, historical, biographical and sociological perspective, Ena Pedersen analyses Katz's depiction on the Eastern European Jews in Galicia, Weimar Germany and in exile, focusing on the problems of anti-Semitism, assimilation, German-Jewish symbiosis, and Jewish identity. The book further provides a first biography of Katz and places him in the context of German exile literature through comparisons with contemporary Jewish and non-Jewish writers in exile

    This study examines constructions of the "Jew" in Baroque literature and investigates the historical development of modes of reference to Jewishness. Although by and large, the texts draw on anti-Semitic stereotypes, periodically a shift in attitude is visible when old narratives are deconstructed and new space opens up for neutral or even positive portrayals of Jewish figures

    Writing and Racial Ventriloquism in the Jewish American Imagination

    In the decades following World War II, many American Jews sought to downplay their difference, as a means of assimilating into Middle America. Yet a significant minority, including many prominent Jewish writers and intellectuals, clung to their ethnic difference, using it to register dissent with the status quo and act as spokespeople for non-white America. In this provocative book, Jennifer Glaser examines how racial ventriloquism became a hallmark of Jewish-American fiction, as Jewish writers asserted that their own ethnicity enabled them to speak for other minorities. Rather than simply condemning this racial ventriloquism as a form of cultural appropriation or commending it as an act of empathic imagination, Borrowed Voices offers a nuanced analysis of the technique, judiciously assessing both its limitations and its potential benefits. Glaser considers how the practice of racial ventriloquism has changed over time, examining the books of many well-known writers, including Bernard Malamud, Cynthia Ozick, Philip Roth, Michael Chabon, Saul Bellow, and many others. Bringing Jewish studies into conversation with critical race theory, Glaser also opens up a dialogue between Jewish-American literature and other forms of media, including films, magazines, and graphic novels. Moreover, she demonstrates how Jewish-American fiction can help us understand the larger anxieties about ethnic identity, authenticity, and authorial voice that emerged in the wake of the civil rights movement

    In Yiddish, shtetl simply means "town." How does such an unassuming word come to loom so large in modern Jewish culture, with a proliferation of uses and connotations? By examining the meaning of shtetl, Jeffrey Shandler asks how Jewish life in provincial towns in Eastern Europe has become the subject of extensive creativity, memory, and scholarship from the early modern era in European history to the present. In the post-Holocaust era, the shtetl looms large in public culture as the epitome of a bygone traditional Jewish communal life. People now encounter the Jewish history of these towns through an array of cultural practices, including fiction, documentary photography, film, memoirs, art, heritage tourism, and political activism. At the same time, the shtetl attracts growing scholarly interest, as historians, social scientists, literary critics, and others seek to understand both the complex reality of life in provincial towns and the nature of its wide-ranging remembrance. Shtetl: A Vernacular Intellectual History traces the trajectory of writing about these towns—by Jews and non-Jews, residents and visitors, researchers, novelists, memoirists, journalists and others—to demonstrate how the Yiddish word for "town" emerged as a key word in Jewish culture and studies. Shandler proposes that the intellectual history of the shtetl is best approached as an exemplar of engaging Jewish vernacularity, and that the variable nature of this engagement, far from being a drawback, is central to the subject’s enduring interest

    Jewish writers have long had a sense of place in the United States, and interpretations of American geography have appeared in Jewish American literature from the colonial era forward. But troublingly, scholarship on Jewish American literary history often limits itself to an immigrant model, situating the Jewish American literary canon firmly and inescapably among the immigrant authors and early environments of the early twentieth century. In A Hundred Acres of America, Michael Hoberman combines literary history and geography to restore Jewish American writers to their roles as critical members of the American literary landscape from the 1850s to the present, and to argue that Jewish history, American literary history, and the inhabitation of American geography are, and always have been, contiguous entities

    Giorgio Bassani (1916–2000) was a Jewish Italian novelist, poet, essayist, editor, and intellectual. A cosmopolitan writer concerned with the problems of Jewish identity and history, Bassani was deeply affected by the persecution and deportation of Italian Jews under Mussolini. His personal experience of this period and its aftermath was fundamental to the creation of his masterwork, the Romanzo di Ferrara (Romance of Ferrara).In The Drama of the Assimilated Jew, Lucienne Kroha makes Bassani’s personal and literary journey accessible to English-language readers. Kroha’s close, intertextual reading of Bassani’s novels and short stories reveals Bassani’s focus on the issue of Jewish masculinity and his profound engagement with the work of Freud, Nietzsche, and Thomas Mann, whose ideas he appropriated and re-cast to construct the fictional story of his own personal struggle
