Analyzing its construction and perception in public discourse, the contributors of this volume discuss the works of a number of authors—from Kafka to new writers such as Irene Dische and Maxim Biller. In addition, topics covered include: American-Jewish writers in Germany, minority culture, homosexuality, and Jewish magazines.
