During the 1910s and 1920s the so-called ‘little magazines’ were vital intermediaries of the new art movements in Germany. At the time, the Jewish community's patronage of the avant-garde was essential due to the positions of many of its members as cultural mediators. The magazines established an alternative distribution channel for uncustomary topics, and particularly for the avant-gardists’ heterodox accounts of Judaism. This article investigates the community that these publications established, and the purpose of their community-making. The avant-gardist communities reflect the heterogeneous character of the Jewish community by questioning the principles of identity and sameness as their foundation. Arguably, the impulse to modernise the Jewish community led to a double de-territorialisation: German-Jewish artists involved in the avant-garde were revisionists within Jewry and yet ‘too Jewish’ for the mainstream population. The texts concerning Jews and Judaism published in the avant-garde magazines supported the creation of an alternative Jewish community. Accordingly, the little magazines functioned as mirrors of their contemporary Jewish community and its relations to avant-gardist communality.

1910 年代和 1920 年代德国前卫杂志中的犹太人社区

在 1910 年代和 1920 年代，所谓的“小杂志”是德国新艺术运动的重要媒介。当时，由于其许多成员担任文化调解人，犹太社区对先锋派的赞助至关重要。这些杂志为不习惯的话题，特别是前卫主义者对犹太教的异端描述，建立了另一种发行渠道。本文调查了这些出版物建立的社区，以及它们创建社区的目的。前卫社区通过质疑作为其基础的身份和同一性原则，反映了犹太社区的异质性。可以说，使犹太社区现代化的冲动导致了双重去领土化：参与先锋派的德裔犹太艺术家是犹太人内部的修正主义者，但对主流人群来说“太犹太化了”。前卫杂志上发表的有关犹太人和犹太教的文章支持创建另类犹太社区。因此，小杂志充当了当代犹太社区及其与前卫社区关系的镜子。
