| Abstract | "The first critical biography of the leading French writer, Edmond Fleg (1874-1963), this book explores his role in forging a modern French Jewish identity before and after the Second World War. This account is both individual and social, pointing to the ways in which Fleg acted within the possibilities and constraints of his milieu and used his writing to engage with and shape the discursive fabric of twentieth-century French culture. It appeaks to scholars who work on modern France, Jewish Studies, and those who focus on issues of identity and difference, as well as a more general audience interested in Modern France and/or modern Jewish history"-- Provided by publisher. |
