German Romanticism was the dominant intellectual movement of German-speaking countries in the late 18th and early 19th centuries,influencing philosophy,aesthetics,literature,and criticism. Compared to English Romanticism,the German variety developed relatively early,and,in the opening years,coincided with Weimar Classicism (1772–1805). In contrast to the seriousness of English Romanticism,the German variety of Romanticism notably valued wit,humour,and beauty.

Gender and Jewish Studies is an emerging subfield at the intersection of gender studies,queer studies,and Jewish studies. Gender studies centers on interdisciplinary research on the phenomenon of gender. It focuses on cultural representations of gender and people's lived experience. Similarly,queer studies focuses on the cultural representations and lived experiences of queer identities to critique hetero-normative values of sex and sexuality. Jewish studies is a field that looks at Jews and Judaism,through such disciplines as history,anthropology,literary studies,linguistics,and sociology. As such,scholars of gender and Jewish studies are considering gender as the basis for understanding historical and contemporary Jewish societies. This field recognizes that much of recorded Jewish history and academic writing is told from the perspective of “the male Jew”and fails to accurately represent the diverse experiences of Jews with non-dominant gender identities.
