This study analyzes the transformation of German Jewry in the
period from 1780-1840 in order to explain why the nature of the
most visible Jewry in modern Europe remained essentially invisible
to its own members and to subsequent generations. German Jewry was
the most visible of the modern European Jewries because in its
history all of the hallmarks of modernity seemed to have converged
in their fullest and most volatile forms. The Transformation of
German Jewry 1780-1840 thoroughly explores this period of time when
large numbers of Jews were integrated into a non-Jewish society.
Sorkin examines the revolution of German Jewry through the study of
journals, sermons, novels, and theological popularizations that
constituted this new German-Jewish "public sphere." This study may
also be applied beyond the confines of Jewish history, for it is a
study in the afterlife of the German Enlightenment, the Aufklarung,
in the culture of liberalism.
