Abstract:
This volume leads us through the imagined world, the delusions, hopes, ambivalences, anxieties, and historical, cultural and psychological dynamics of six German Jewish writers and intellectuals who arrived in Palestine between the 1920s and 1930s. The approach is both personal and symbolic as each witnesses the gap between dream and reality from their own perspective, representing it at many levels
