Expanding the perspective initiated by British Romanticism and the Jews: History, Culture, Literature (0-312-29522-7), this volume explores more deeply the complexities inherent in the relationship between the British and Jewish cultures as initiated in the Romantic Period in England, though extending to the present in the Middle East.

Pforzheimer, Jr. Research Grant, awarded by the Keats-Shelley Association of America, is an independent scholar who has devoted her professional career to studying the intersection between the Jewish and British cultures, primarily in the Romantic period.
