Theory, as it’s happened across the humanities, has often been coded as “Jewish.” This collection of essays seeks to move past explanations for this understanding that rely on the self-evident (the historical centrality of Jews to the rise of Critical Theory with the Frankfurt School) or stereotypical (psychoanalysis as the “Jewish Science”) in order to show how certain problematics of modern Jewishness enrich theory.
In the range of violence and agency that attend the appellation “Jew,” depending on how, where, and by whom it’s uttered, we can see that Jewishness is a rhetorical as much as a sociological fact, and that its rhetorical and sociological aspects, while linked, are not identical. Attention to this disjuncture helps to elucidate the questions of power, subjectivity, identity, figuration, language, and relation that modern theory has grappled with. These questions in turn implicate geopolitical issues such as the relation of a people to a state and the violence done in the name of simplistic identitarian ideologies.
Clarifying a situation where “the Jew” is not readily or unproblematically legible, the editors propose what they call “spectral reading,” a way to understand Jewishness as a fluid and rhetorical presence. While not divorced from sociological facts, this spectral reading works in concert with contemporary theory to mediate pessimistic and utopian impulses, experiences, and realities.

在整个人文学科中，理论经常被编码为”犹太人”这本散文集试图超越对这种理解的解释，这种理解依赖于不言而喻的(犹太人在历史上对法兰克福学派批判理论兴起的中心作用)或刻板印象(精神分析学被称为“犹太科学”) ，以显示现代犹太性的某些问题丰富了理论。在“犹太人”这个名称所包含的暴力和机构的范围内，取决于它是如何、在哪里、由谁说出来的，我们可以看到犹太性既是一个事实，也是一个社会学事实，而且它的修辞和社会学方面，虽然有联系，却并不完全相同。对这种脱节的关注有助于阐明权力、主体性、同一性、形象性、语言以及现代理论所要解决的关系等问题。这些问题反过来又牵涉到地缘政治问题，例如一个民族与一个国家的关系，以及以简单的认同意识形态的名义所实施的暴力。澄清了“犹太人”不容易或不容易辨认的情况，编辑们提出了他们所谓的“谱读”，一种将犹太人的特性理解为流动和修辞的存在的方法。虽然没有脱离社会学的事实，但这种光谱阅读与当代理论相一致，调和悲观和乌托邦的冲动、经历和现实
