Abstracts

In my contribution, I provide an enumeration of nodal points for the theme of ‘Jewish literature’ from Bohemia and Moravia, and in rough, basic contours sketch out a developmental line of this literature and place it within a Central European (German language) cultural-historical framework. In my chapter (the propositions of which are mostly familiar to experts in the field) I attempt to provide a kind of literary-historical outline for further, what we might call ‘point contributions’ of this monograph, focusing on individual authors, works, and themes. The fact that I shall mention predominantly works written in German will also perhaps expand the viewpoint on this theme from the perspective of Czech studies, and prospectively provide material for comparison.
