This book is a reflection on the Jewish presence in two European
capitals, Warsaw and Berlin, in the first half of the 20th century.
It was inspired by the works of Polish-Jewish, Yiddish and
German-Jewish authors, as well as by the connections between urban
spaces and the formation of different varieties of modern Jewish
identity. The spotlight is cast on images preserved in literary
works, namely those concerning separate Jewish neighborhoods and
the sphere of cultural interethnic contacts. By attempting to
restore the presence of Jewish inhabitants of both cities,
destroyed by the Holocaust, it may become possible to see how the
imagined communities of the time were created and preserved in the
texts, even if, in reality, the metropolises were transformed into
necropolises.
