Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book considers the differing emotional investments in Israel of, on the one hand, Jews physically domiciled in Israel and, on the other hand, diasporic Jews living outside Israel for whom the country nonetheless forms a central point of affect. The book's purpose is to trace how these two types of investment are represented by francophone Jewish writers. Israel is at once a problematic geopolitical reality in international politics and a salient topos within Jewish cultural imaginaries that transcend national boundaries. However, it has often been claimed that Israel has a "special" relationship with France, which until 1967 was its greatest ally. Israel has a large francophone community (some 800,000), while France has the largest Jewish community in Europe (some 600,000). But Franco-Israeli relations have undergone radical, largely negative transformations under the Fifth Republic (1958- ). The scope of the book is wide, addressing the following questions. How do francophone Jewish writers represent |

Israel in their literary works? What responses to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict do they express both in these works and in non-literary discourse (interviews and journalistic articles)? What is the role in those responses of emotion, affect, cognition, and ethics? To answer these questions, the book examines 44 different autobiographies, memoirs and novels published between 1965 and 2012 by 27 different authors, both male and female, covering the full cultural spectrum of Jews: Ashkenazic, Sephardic, and Mizrahi. The approach of the book is interdisciplinary, combining literary analysis with insights from the domains of history, journalism, philosophy, politics, psychoanalysis, and sociology. |

"The GPPS Journal has been developed to serve the international power and propulsion community in the time of change. The Journal with its close link to the GPPS technical conference series has played and continues to play a uniquely important role. I very much appreciate the contributions made and the solid foundation laid by the founding editor (Prof. Howard Hodson), the associate editors and the editorial office team, and believe that with the help of all involved, including the |

reviewers and authors, the Journal can and will be progressed further, in terms of the quality and speed of the publications and in terms of the impact on academic and industrial communities of the society"--About GPPS, viewed March 9, 2020. |
