“Exile and Interpretation” will explore the impact that forced exile had on the scholarship, including
especially the hermeneutical strategies, of refugee scholars, most of whom were Jewish, who fled
Germany and Austria in the 1930s. Theodor Adorno, Hannah Arendt, Erich Auerbach, Hans Baron,
Walter Benjamin, Max Horkheimer, Karl Löwith, Karl Popper and Leo Strauss, among others, will
be discussed.
