Jeffrey A. Grossman. The Discourse on Yiddish in Germany: From the Enlightenment to the Second Empire. Studies in German Literature, Linguistics, and Culture. Rochester, NY: Camden House, 2000. x, 258 pp.
This is a fine book, one which constructs its tasks with seriousness and depth. Grossman's book is all about the place of Yiddish in German cultural and intellectual contexts. The shortcomings are more a product of the limitations of the discipline than of the author.
