Description of  St phane Mos s Displacements : Selected Essays on German-Jewish Literature and Modernity (Perspectives on Jewish Texts and Contexts, 21)

3110754010 rar Stphane Moss explores in Displacements the poetry of Paul Celan and the work of major German-Jewish thinkers in the context of his distinction between normative and critical modernity. The first part contains a translation of his book Approches de Paul Celan, the third part a translation of his lecture series Figures philosophiques de la modernit juive, and the central section contains, alongside a text on Freud, essays on Goethe and Bchner that extend his analysis beyond the Jewish sphere while engaging with the questions of tradition and its fragmentation that he raises there. Edited, translated, and with an Introduction by Ashraf Noor.
