The (non)-assuming legacy : the debate on German-Jewish memorial culture
- This essay shows how Jewish identity in pre-1933 Germany defined itself and how the widely known concept of German-Jewish symbiosis came into question after the organized murder of the European Jews. The search for a German- Jewish legacy in postwar Germany as well as in the countries in which the Jewish emigres found a new home will be explored. Moreover, the Eastern European cultural roots of Jews who migrated from Russia to Germany in the 1990s will also be discussed
