Features a new section on the institutional settings of German Jewish Studies, a Film Forum on Shahar Rozen’s 1998 documentary Liebe Perla, and interviews with Paul Mendes-Flohr and Barbara Honigmann, among other contributions.
Nexus is the official publication of the biennial German Jewish Studies Workshop at the University of Notre Dame. Together,
Nexus and the Workshop constitute the first ongoing German Jewish Studies forum in North America. Because the locus of scholarship is never incidental,
Nexus 6 introduces a new section, ‘Contexts, ‘ to examine, in this case, what it means to pursue German Jewish Studies at a Catholic university, Notre Dame. And because research is never static, it inaugurates a series in which scholars revisit their own prior scholarly publications. Robert Smith launches this initiative by revising his view of Dietrich Bonhoeffer as a source for post-Holocaust Christian-Jewish dialogue. The volume also offers conversations with the legendary Paul Mendes-Flohr on his understanding of the German Jewish ‘legacy’ and with Barbara Honigmann on her distinctive prose style and what it means to her to practice Judaism. The popular Film Forum section returns, this time focusing on Shahar Rozen’s 1998 documentary
Liebe Perla.
Nexus 6 also presents new scholarship on Babi Yar Holocaust memorials, Freud’s famous
Moses essay, Primo Levi’s translation of Kafka, and an introduction to and first English translation of the 18th-century philosopher Salomon Maimon’s understudied essay
History of His Philosophical Authorship in Dialogues.
