Storm from Paradise The Politics of Jewish Memory Jonathan Boyarin 1992 Spring

”An essay in the richest sense of that term, inspired by and modeled on Walter Benjamin’s essays. Based on varied, diverse, and abundantly cross-disciplinary readings, it moves and builds, questions and interrogates, and ultimately convinces us that the Jewish experience with being the ‘other’ and, conversely and recently, with ‘othering’ is indeed relevant to theorists of contemporary culture.” --Marianne Hirsch
