On the Situation of the Polish Writer of Jewish Descent in the Twentieth Century: It Is Not I Who Should Have Written This Study-

A leading critic of Polish literature, Artur Sandauer (1913-1989), takes a hard look at the critical role that Jews and individuals of ?Jewish descent? played as both creators and objects of literature and culture in twentieth-century Poland. Through an engaging series of essays, Sandauer analyzes major figures in Polish literature via the prism of one central, if at times muted, issue: ?the Jews.' Written during the period of martial law, Sandauer's work stands as a testimony to the power of the written word, as well as the renaissance in Jewish studies in contemporary Poland.Sandauer, Artur is the author of 'On the Situation of the Polish Writer of Jewish Descent in the Twentieth Century: It Is Not I Who Should Have Written This Study-', published 2005 under ISBN 9789654932103 and ISBN 9654932105.
