Viennese-born author and translator Zohn (German, Brandeis U.) offers 16 essays exploring his Austrian-Jewish heritage and its perspectives on world literature and ideas, and 15 translations from the work of Stefan Zweig, Theodore Herzl, Alfred Polgar, Martin Buber, and others. He discusses such topics as the Jewish contribution to Fin-de-Siecle Vienna, the challenges of translating Herzl, and the Jewishness of Franz Kafka. Most of the pieces have been published over the years in various journals. No index.
