 | Modernist Form and the Myth of Jewification Subjects: PHILOSOPHY / Aesthetics.; LITERARY CRITICISM / European / German.; RELIGION / Judaism / History.; Antisemitism.; Art criticism.; Modernism (Art); This book argues that the antisemitic interpretation of modernist form as a symptom of a mobile, contagious Jewish spirit needs to be treated as integral to the history of European modernism. The notion of modernist form as Jewified lies at the heart of both a certain modernism's hostile reception, and its self-conception.
