4.9/5 (30803 ratings)

Description:This study addresses the problems raised by the ambivalent comments about or portrayals of the Jews to be found in the writings of Gustav Freytag, Wilhelm Raabe, Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, Theodor Fontane and the early Thomas Mann. Why was it that these supposedly tolerant and liberal-minded men could use the language and images of antisemitism in their non-fiction and fiction? The book considers the question within the context of the unequal German-Jewish relationship in the period before, during and after Jewish emancipation. This study exposes the problematic way in which liberal-minded Germans thought about and treated the Jews in the later nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Contents: Gustav Freytag: The Limitations of Liberalism -- Wilhelm Raabe: The Master, the 'Schone Semitische Zauberin' and her 'Krummnasige Verwandtschaft' -- Leopold von Sacher-Masoch: Erratic Solidarity -- Theodor Fontane: The Uncertain Critic -- Thomas Mann: The Blindness of the 'bequeme Mehrzahl'.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
