Rather, Jewish literary production in English has conventionally been classified as ‘hyphenated’ and has therefore not yet been subjected as such to the scrutiny of scholars of literary or cultural history.  \nThis collection of essays addresses this lack and initiates the scholarly exploration of transnational and transcultural Anglophone Jewish literature as oneof the New English Literatures. Without attempting to impose what would seem to be a misguided conceptual unity on the many-faceted field of Anglophone Jewish literature, the book is based on a plurality of theoretical frameworks. Alert to the productive friction between these discourses, which it aims to elicit, it confronts Jewish literary studies with postcolonial studies, cultural studies and other contemporary theoretical frameworks.  \nFeaturing contributions from among the best-known scholars in the fields of British and American Jewish literature, including Bryan Cheyette and Emily Miller Budick, this collection transcends borders of both nations and academic disciplines and takes into account cultural and historical affinities and differences of the Anglophone diaspora which have contributed to the formation and development of the English-language segment of Jewish literature.  \nAxel Stähler is Lecturer in Comparative Literary Studies in the School of European Culture and Languages at the University of Kent, Canterbury, UK.  \nRoutledge Studies in Twentieth-Century Literature  \n1 Testimony from the Nazi Camps  \nFrench women’s voices  \nMargaret-Anne Hutton  \n2 Modern Confessional Writing  \nNew critical essays  \nEdited by Jo Gill  \n3 Cold War Literature  \nWriting the global conflict  \nAndrew Hammond  \n4 Modernism and the Crisis of Sovereignty  \nAndrew John Miller  \n5 Cartographic Strategies of Postmodernity  \nThe figure of the map in contemporary theory and fiction Peta Mitchell  \n6 Anglophone Jewish Literature  \nAxel Stähler  \nAnglophone Jewish Literature  \nEdited by Axel Stähler  \nFirst published 2007  \nby Routledge  \n2 Park Square, Milton Park, Abingdon, Oxon OX14 4RN Simultaneously published in the USA and Canada by Routledge  \n270 Madison Ave, New York, NY 10016  \nThis edition published in the Taylor & Francis e-Library, 2007.  \n“To purchase your own copy of this or any of Taylor & Francis or Routledge’s collection of thousands of [eBooks please go to www.eBookstore.tandf.co.uk](eBooks please go to www.eBookstore.tandf.co.uk).”  \nRoutledge is an imprint of the Taylor & Francis Group,  \nan informa business © 2007 Axel Stähler  \nAll rights reserved.
