Dr. Shmuel Schneider's new book "Existence and Memory in 
the Writings of Aharon Appelfeld, Yosef Chaim Brenner and in other 
writings" (in Hebrew) is a collection of essays, book reviews and 
interviews. The book deals with one of the most ("hot") debated 
topics in modern Jewish culture and in modern Hebrew literature – the 
interaction between modern life in the last two centuries and the 
Jewish collective memory: the Jewish history, the Jewish tradition.

             The book discusses the topics as they are reflected in 
the writings of Aharon Appelfeld, one of the giants of twentieth 
century Israeli and world literature and in the writings of Yosef 
Chaim Brenner, one of the most influential founders of the Israeli 
labor movement and the Israeli secular ideology and culture. To a 
lesser extent the book also analyzes Baruch Kurtzwil's approach to 
this problematic and polemical question.
