This book-series, initiated in 1992, has an interdisciplinary orientation; it comprises research monographs, collections of essays and annotated editions from the 18th century to the present. The term German-Jewish literature refers to the literary work of Jewish authors writing in German to the extent that Jewish aspects can be identified in these. However, the image of Jews among non-Jewish authors, often determined by anti-Semitism, is also a factor in the history of German-Jewish relations as reflected in literature. This series provides an appropriate forum for research into the whole problematic area.

1933 erschien das abstoßende Machwerk „Juden sehen dich an“ des Rassisten Johann von Leers. Ein Jahr später erscheint - aus gutem Grund anonym - das Buch „Nazi-Führer sehen dich an“, geschrieben von dem jüdischen Exilanten Walter Mehring. Es enthält 33 Biografien von den damaligen Größen des Nationalsozialismus - zugespitzt, satirisch, geschliffen.
