New.
Hardcover. Brand-new hardcover 1997 Yale Univ. Press. Still in shrinkwrap. Superclean; no marks; never read. Gift-giving condition. 912pp. Language: English. NOTE: Cannot ship outside U.S. via Global Priority--Surface or Airmail only. 'Editors Gilman (German and Jewish studies, Univ. of Chicago) and Zipes (German and Jewish studies, Univ. of Minnesota) present short essays that give chronological snapshots of the Jewish German relationship from 1096 to 1996. They discuss Jewishness and Germanness without defining the limits of the terms, allowing for the widest possible scope to the selections (e.g., Yiddish and Hebrew literature as well as Kafka). They include culture, history, literature, religion, and an anthropology of the relationship. Mendelssohn, Heine, Herzl, Buber, Arendt, and Benjamin are some of the figures that appear as important guideposts. The editors highlight children's literature and writing by women, and contemporary literature is also included as an important element in the ongoing relationship. This invaluable companion can be used as a reference tool or read as an extended scholarly work. Bibliographies are supplied for each essay.'--Gene Shaw, Library Journal.
