This anthology features a diverse and compelling array of writings from prominent Jewish authors in Germany today. The writers included here-Katja Behrens, Maxim Biller, Esther Dischereit, and Barbara Honigmann-did not experience the Holocaust firsthand, though their works continually explore the meaning of it as it is remembered and forgotten in contemporary Germany. From different perspectives these authors offer incisive reflections on German-Jewish relations today. They wrestle in particular with the strangeness of living in a country where unencumbered relationships between Germans and Jews are rare. Also surfacing in their writings are the many foundations and challenges to modern Jewish identity in Germany, including the vicissitudes of gender roles, and the experience of emigration, intergenerational conflict, and sexuality.
"Contemporary Jewish Writing in Germany" not only features a set of engaging stories but also encourages a deeper understanding of the experiences of Jews in Germany today.

The Translated Jew brings together an eclectic set of literary and visual texts to reimagine the transnational potential for German-Jewish culture in the twenty-first century. Departing from scholarship that has located the German-Jewish text as an object that can be defined geographically and historically, The Translated Jew challenges national literary historiography and redraws the maps by which transnational Jewish culture and identity must be read. This book explores the myriad acts of translation, actual and metaphorical, through which Jewishness leaves its traces, taking as a given the always provisional nature of Jewish text and Jewish language. Although the focus is on contemporary German-Jewish literary cultures, The Translated Jew also turns its attention to a number of key visual and architectural projects by American, British, and French artists and writers, including W. G. Sebald, Anne Blonstein, Helene Cixous, Ulrike Mohr, Daniel Blaufuks, Paul Celan, Raymond Federman, and Rose Auslander. In thus realigning German-Jewish culture with European and American Jewish culture and post-Holocaust aesthetics, this book explores the circulation of Jewishness between the U.S. and Europe. The insistence on the polylingualism of any single language and the multidirectionality of Jewishness are at the very center of The Translated Jew.

As German Jews emigrated in the 19th and early 20th centuries andas exiles from Nazi Germany, they carried the traditions, culture,and particular prejudices of their home with them. At the same time,Germany—and Berlin in particular—attracted both secular and religiousJewish scholars from eastern Europe. They engaged in vital intellectualexchange with German Jewry, although their cultural and religiouspractices differed greatly, and they absorbed many cultural practicesthat they brought back to Warsaw or took with them to New York and TelAviv. After the Holocaust, German Jews and non-German Jews educatedin Germany were forced to reevaluate their essential relationship withGermany and Germanness as well as their notions of Jewish life outsideof Germany. Among the first volumes to focus on German-Jewish transnationalism,this interdisciplinary collection spans the fields of history, literature, film,theater, architecture, philosophy, and theology as it examines the livesof significant emigrants. The individuals whose stories are reevaluatedinclude German Jews Ernst Lubitsch, David Einhorn, and GershomScholem, the architect Fritz Nathan and filmmaker Helmar Lerski; andeastern European Jews David Bergelson, Der Nister, Jacob Katz, JosephSoloveitchik, and Abraham Joshua Heschel—figures not normallyassociated with Germany. Three-Way Street addresses the gap in thescholarly literature as it opens up critical ways of approaching Jewishculture not only in Germany, but also in other locations, from the mid-19thcentury to the present.
