- This book took 5 years to research and write. This is a major study (343 pages) covering theoretical, political and cultural issues related to cosmopolitanist discourse and the Jews. It analyses the historical and discursive junctures that mark the central paradigm shifts in the image of Jews within German-speaking cosmopolitanist debates, probing into the relationship between anti-semitic discourses on the Jewish cosmopolitan and relevant Jewish self-constructions since 1800. It draws in interdisciplinary approaches from German Studies, Jewish studies, literature, history and the history of ideas, as well as the study of the history and culture of German-speaking Jews more specifically.
