Biennial volume of new and innovative essays on German Jewish Studies, featuring forum sections on Heinrich Heine and Karl Kraus.

Argues that Viennese Jewish modernism is explicable as an aesthetic reconfiguration of Jewish tradition in response to multifaceted crises of memory, identity and language. Examines the works of Hugo von Hofmannsthal (1874-1929), Arthur Schnitzler (1862-1931), Richard Beer-Hofmann (1866-1945) and Sigmund Freud (1856-1939).
