Yet from the 1830s on, Jews writing in German also produced a vast corpus of popular fiction that was explicitly Jewish in content, audience, and function. Middlebrow Literature and the Making of German-Jewish Identity offers the first comprehensive investigation in English of this literature, which sought to navigate between tradition and modernity, between Jewish history and the German present, and between the fading walls of the ghetto and the promise of a new identity as members of a German bourgeoisie." "This study examines the ways in which popular fiction assumed an unprecedented role in shaping Jewish identity during this period. It locates in nineteenth-century Germany a defining moment of the modern Jewish experience and the beginnings of a tradition of Jewish belles lettres that is in many ways still with us today."--BOOK JACKET. 000351432 650_0 $$aGerman literature$$xJewish authors$$xHistory and criticism. 000351432 650_0 $$aGerman fiction$$y19th century$$xHistory and criticism. 000351432 650_0 $$aJewish fiction$$y19th century$$xHistory and criticism. 000351432 650_0 $$aJews$$zGermany$$xIntellectual life$$y19th century. 000351432 650_0 $$aGroup identity in literature. 000351432 650_0 $$aJews in literature. 000351432 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000351432 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aHess, Jonathan M., 1965-$$tMiddlebrow literature and the making of German-Jewish identity.$$dStanford, Calif. : Stanford University Press, c2010$$z9780804761222$$w(DLC) 2009030703$$w(OCoLC)428436847 000351432 8520_ $$bacq 000351432 85280 $$bebk$$hProquest Ebook Central 000351432 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=543995$$zOnline access 000351432 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:351432$$pGLOBAL_SET 000351432 980__ $$aEBOOK 000351432 980__ $$aBIB 000351432 982__ $$aEbook 000351432 983__ $$aOnline
