Joseph Roth (1894–1939) was one of the most acute observers of the darkness that fell upon interwar Europe. This lecture traces the ways in which his migration from Jewish Galicia to cosmopolitan Amsterdam and Paris changed his cognitive framework in regards to his origins in Eastern Europe; a place to which he never returned, but whose imaginative pull grew stronger as Europe geared toward its destruction.
Ilse Lazaroms is the author of The Grace of Misery: Joseph Roth and the Politics of Exile, 1919-1939 (Brill 2013), which was awarded the Victor Adler State Prize of the Austrian Ministry of Science and Education in 2015. She received her PhD degree from the European University Institute, Florence, and has been a fellow at the Center for Jewish History in New York City for two years.
