Reading a wide range of novels from post-war Germany to Israeli,
Palestinian and postcolonial writers, The Politics of Jewishness in
Contemporary World Literature is a comprehensive exploration of
changing cultural perceptions of Jewishness in contemporary
writing. Examining how representations of Jewishness in
contemporary fiction have wrestled with such topics as the
Holocaust, Israeli-Palestinian relations and Jewish diaspora
experiences, Isabelle Hesse demonstrates the 'colonial' turn taken
by these representations since the founding of the Jewish state.
Following the dynamics of this turn, the book demonstrates new ways
of questioning received ideas about victimhood and power in
contemporary discussions of postcolonialism and world literature.
