Oxford & New York : Oxford University Press , c2000. Paperback. vi,264 pp. [4] pp. plates. 24 cm. - From the beginning of modern intellectual history to the culture wars of the present day, the experience of assimilating Jews and the idiom of "culture" have been fundamentally intertwined with each other. Freedman's book begins by looking at images of the stereotypical Jew in the literary culture of nineteenth- and twentieth-century England and America, and then considers the efforts on the part of Jewish critics and intellectuals to counter this image in the public sphere. It explores the unexpected parallels and ironic reversals between a cultural dispensation that had ambivalent responses to Jews and Jews who became exponents of that very tradition. Condition : very good copy. ISBN 9780195151992. Keywords : JUDAÏCA, anti-semitism. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 21107

Inhaltsangabe:

Book by Freedman Jonathan

Críticas:

Where The Temple of Culture differs markedly from the usual accounts of literary anti-Semitism is that it also explores the response of Jewish individuals (academics, publishers and New York freethinkers) to the manifold discourses which brought together Jews and culture in increasingly odd conjunctions ... Achieves a great deal in a relatively short but remarkably intelligent book ... has, it is to be hoped, changed the terms of debate away from the many heated and fruitless exchanges which have steadfastly ignored the fundamental ambivalences which remain at the heart of Anglo-American culture. (Times Literary Supplement)
