Daleko od nigdzie

Abstract

The person of and texts of Joseph Roth were used by Claudio Magris in his work to show a complex analysis of the Jewish intellectual culture of the beginning of 20th century – the writing of Roth is a counterpoint to general considerations of writings of other Jewish intellectualists and to indicate differences and similarities between them. Especially Walter Benjamin is the one of the most recalled name in the work of Magris. An essayistic style of the writer places his work among scientific work and artistic text.
