More than fifty years have past since the Shoah, but§the relationship between Jewish and non-Jewish§Germans is still strained. Why do Jewish-Germans§choose to live in post-Shoah Germany? How does their§presence affect the lives of their non-Jewish German§countrymen? Rafael Seligmann (1947 - ) was one of the§first German-language Jewish authors to write about§contemporary life in post-Shoah Germany. He is§considered one of the most controversial of the§contemporary German-Language Jewish writers because§he breaks taboos and negatively portrays Jewish§characters in his novels. He feels there is a silence§in Germany surrounding the Holocaust that he hopes to§break by provoking his readers to discuss how the§Shoah affects their lives. This book applies the§ideas of scholars such as Gershom Scholem, Dan Diner,§Todd Herzog, Jack Zipes, Hannah Arendt and Katja§Behrens to Seligmann's novels, Rubensteins§Versteigerung (1989), Die jiddische Mamme (1990), and§Der Musterjude (1997) to evaluate Seligmann's§perception of the manifestations of the German-Jewish§negative symbiosis on life in post-Shoah Germany.
