Since the late eighteenth century artistic representation has had a growing impact on how Poles and Jews have perceived each other. Literary works, the visual arts, and, from the twentieth century onwards, film, have complemented earlier perceptions shaped by religious prejudice and everyday culture. Introduced by a section evaluating these earlier mutual perceptions, this volume provides interpretations of literary works from the eighteenth to the twentieth century in Polish and Yiddish by Jan Potocki, Julian Ursynowicz Niemcewicz, Klemens Junosza-Szaniawski, Bruno Schulz, Piotr Szewc, and others. A section on cinematographic representation before and after the Second World War illustrates the importance of this new genre of cultural production, and an extensive reflection on the fine arts examines the impact of artistic contexts (such as Kazimierz Dolny) as well as individual creators (Józef Herman, Zdzisław Bęksiński) and representations in popular culture. Literature, film, and the fine arts thus emerge as a prism through which it is possible to trace both negative stereotyping and nuanced representation.Interested in subscribing to Polin?

This book is a reflection on the Jewish presence in two European capitals, Warsaw and Berlin, in the first half of the 20th century. It was inspired by the works of Polish-Jewish, Yiddish and German-Jewish authors, as well as by the connections between urban spaces and the formation of different varieties of modern Jewish identity. The spotlight is cast on images preserved in literary works, namely those concerning separate Jewish neighborhoods and the sphere of cultural interethnic contacts. By attempting to restore the presence of Jewish inhabitants of both cities, destroyed by the Holocaust, it may become possible to see how the imagined communities of the time were created and preserved in the texts, even if, in reality, the metropolises were transformed into necropolises.
