In the wake of World War II and the Holocaust, it seemed there was
no place for German in Israel and no trace of Hebrew in Germany -
the two languages and their cultures appeared as divergent as the
directions of their scripts. Yet when placed side by side on
opposing pages, German and Hebrew converge in the middle. Comprised
of essays on literature, history, philosophy, and the visual and
performing arts, this volume explores the mutual influence of two
linguistic cultures long held as separate or even as diametrically
opposed. From Moses Mendelssohn's arrival in Berlin in 1748 to the
recent wave of Israeli migration to Berlin, the essays gathered
here shed new light on the painful yet productive relationship
between modern German and Hebrew cultures.
