Abstract

Abstract:The purpose of this essay is to explore a unique kind of Jewish diasporism in contemporary German-Jewish literature. As in all forms of diasporism, the German-Jewish authors under consideration here confirm the necessity of living in exile. Unlike most other thinkers, who affirm exile for political or religious reasons, the diasporism discussed here is existential and personal. This form of diasporism, it is argued, is connected to the specific kind of Jewish exile that these authors have chosen. All three live in Berlin, which occupies a special role in the contemporary Jewish imagination. And all of them explore through literature the desires, fears, and disappointments of exile and homecoming.

当代德国犹太文学中对流亡的肯定:解读马克西姆·比勒、奥尔加·格雅斯诺娃和马蒂·谢梅洛夫
摘要:本文旨在探讨当代德国犹太文学中一种独特的犹太流散主义。正如所有形式的流散一样,这里考虑的德国犹太作家证实了流亡生活的必要性。不像其他大多数思想家,他们肯定流亡是出于政治或宗教原因,这里讨论的流散主义是存在的和个人的。有人认为,这种形式的流散主义,与这些作者所选择的特定类型的犹太人流亡有关。他们三人都住在柏林,柏林在当代犹太人的想象中占有特殊的地位。他们都通过文学探索了流亡和回归的欲望、恐惧和失望。
