Produktbeschreibung

Essay from the year 2014 in the subject Didactics - English - Literature, Works, grade: A, The Open University, course: Arts Foundation, language: English, abstract: The cultural encounter in Bernard Malamud's 'The Last Mohican' is precipitated by the displacement of assimilated American-Jew Arthur Fidelman, an aspiring art historian, when he arrives in Europe. His cultural return places the protagonist in contact with the past and with Jewishness. This is embodied by the story's other main character, the enigmatic and stateless Jewish peddler Shimon Susskind. It is the changing relationship between Fidelman and Susskind that provides the story's structure and through which the themes of identity and personal responsibility to others are explored through the inner transformation that Fidelman is forced to go through when he encounters Susskind.
