He destroys in order to create. In a sweeping critique of the field, Ben-
jamin Schreier resituates Jewish studies in order to make room for a
critical study of identity and identification. Displacing the assump-
tion that Jewish studies is necessarily the study of Jews, this book aims to
break down the walls of the academic ghetto in which the study of Jewish
American literature often seems to be contained: alienated from fields like
comparative ethnicity studies, American studies, and multicultural studies;
suffering from the unwillingness of Jewish studies to accept critical literary
studies as a legitimate part of its project; and so often refusing itself to en-
gage in self-critique.
The Impossible Jew interrogates how the concept of identity is critically
put to work by identity-based literary study. Through readings of key authors
from across the canon of Jewish American literature and culture—including
Abraham Cahan, the New York Intellectuals, Philip Roth, and Jonathan Safran
Foer—Benjamin Schreier shows how texts resist the historicist expectation
that self-evident Jewish populations are represented in and recoverable from
them. Through ornate, scabrous, funny polemics, Schreier draws the lines
of relation between Jewish American literary study and American studies,
multiethnic studies, critical theory, and Jewish studies. He maintains that a
Jewish studies beyond ethnicity is essential for a viable future of Jewish liter-
ary study.
