This book was released on 1998 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considering the question of what defines a writer's work as Jewish, Fraiman explores the themes reflecting the Jewish commitment of two very different German-Jewish authors of the first half of the 20th century: Richard Beer-Hofmann, who wrote mostly biblical plays (e.g. Jacob's Dream) and came from an assimilated family, and Lion Feuchtwanger, developer of the dramatic novel (Thomas Wendt), who grew up in an observant one. She focuses more on Beer-Hofmann as the less researched. Includes chronologies. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
