Placeless Topographies: Jewish Perspectives on the Literature of Exile

Edited by Bernhard Greiner





This book is currently unavailable. Enquire to check if we can source a used copy


| book description |

The analysis of exile literature in the articles of this volume focuses on the Jewish experience of exile, thus giving the subject a profound, 2,500-year depth and a corresponding variety of strategies for coming to terms with the experience of exile. At the same time, this perspective broadens the perspective on the phenomenon of exile literature to include the tensions between 'exile and homecoming'. The essays discuss German, Hebrew, and French exile literature, with the emphasis on the 20th century.
