Glikl's Circulation. Editing, Translating, Value

Johnson, Matthew LU (2023) In Globalisierte Literaturen. Theorie und Geschichte transnationaler Buchkultur / Globalized Literatures. Theory and History of Transnational Book Culture 3. p.291-309
Abstract
This article reevaluates the circulation and reception of the memoirs of Glikl, an early modern Jewish writer and businesswoman, in the German-speaking world from the mid-19th to the early 20th century. It considers how the text’s modern editors and translators – including Abraham Tendlau, David Kaufmann, Bertha Pappenheim, and Alfred Feilchenfeld – shaped its meaning and determined its value over time and across languages. Drawing on translation studies and book history, the article uncovers the interconnections between the different forms of the work’s circulation in print and its complex and often contradictory evaluation in philological, historical, feminist, and literary terms.
