Around the beginning of the twentieth century, Jewish writers and artists across Europe began depicting fellow Jews as savages or 'primitive' tribesmen. Primitivism - the European appreciation of and fascination with so-called 'primitive', non-Western peoples who were also subjugated and denigrated - was a powerful artistic critique of the modern world and was adopted by Jewish writers and artists to explore the urgent questions surrounding their own identity and status in Europe as insiders and outsiders. Jewish primitivism found expression in a variety of forms in Yiddish, Hebrew, and German literature, photography, and graphic art, including in the work of figures such as Franz Kafka, Y.L. Peretz, S. An-sky, Uri Zvi Greenberg, Else Lasker-Schuler, and Moi Ver. In 'Jewish Primitivism', Samuel J. Spinner argues that these and other Jewish modernists developed a distinct aesthetic.

Der Band nimmt mit Zeitschriftenliteratur, Illustrierten, Buchreihen, Kabarettaufführungen und Purimspielen ein breites Spektrum an populären Phänomenen deutsch-jüdischer und jiddischer Kultur von der Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts bis in die Nachkriegszeit in den Blick. Schwerpunkte der Untersuchungen liegen in Fragen nach den Verfahrensweisen medialer und institutioneller Vermittlungsinstanzen (Presse, Verlage, Warenhäuser, Boulevard- und Volkstheater), nach der Teilhabe jüdischer Akteure an modernen Massen- und Unterhaltungskulturen und nach den Spezifika einer eigenständig ,jüdischen' Populärkultur. Historiker, Theater- und Literaturwissenschaftler setzen sich dabei mit den verschiedenen Konzeptualisierungen von ,Jüdischem' und ,Populärem' auseinander. Dabei wird die Unterscheidung zwischen Jüdischem und Nichtjüdischem sowie zwischen Populär- und Hochkultur immer wieder problematisiert.

The wide-ranging portrayal of modern Jewishness in artistic terms invites scrutiny into the relationship between creativity and the formation of Jewish identity and into the complex issue of what makes a work of art uniquely Jewish. Whether it is the provenance of the artist, as in the case of popular Israeli singer Zehava Ben, the intention of the iconography, as in Ben Shahn's antifascist paintings, or the utopian ideals of the Jewish Palestine Pavilion at the 1939 New York World's Fair, clearly no single formula for defining Jewish art in the diaspora will suffice.The Art of Being Jewish in Modern Times is the first work to analyze modern Jewry's engagement with the arts as a whole, including music, theater, dance, film, museums, architecture, painting, sculpture, and more. Working with a broad conception of what counts as art, the book asks the following questions: What roles have commerce and politics played in shaping Jewish artistic agendas? Who determines the Jewishness of art and for what purposes? What role has aesthetics played in reshaping religious traditions and rituals? This richly illustrated volume illuminates how the arts have helped Jews confront the various challenges of modernity, including cultural adaptation and self-preservation, economic diversification, and ritual transformation. There truly is an art to being Jewish in the modern world-or, alternatively, an art to being modern in the Jewish world-and this collection fully captures its range, diversity, and historical significance.
