Elliot Neaman

Elliot Neaman (born 1957) is a professor of history at the University of San Francisco, where he began teaching in 1993.[1] He is an expert in modern European intellectual history, especially twentieth century Germany.[2] Neaman is also one of the editors of a Festschrift for his mentor from UC Berkeley, Prof. Martin Jay, called The Modernist Imagination (Berghahn 2009).[3]

Neaman's first book, A Dubious Past, Ernst Jünger and the Politics of Literature after Nazism (UC Press, 1999) introduced a "critical reception history" of the German writer.[4] Neaman has also written introductions to new translations of Ernst Jünger's works, including The Adventurous Heart, along with Eliah Bures.[5] In 2015 a Swedish publisher, Edda, brought out the first English translation of Ernst Jünger's postwar novel A Visit to Godenholm, which is a veiled account of an LSD drug trip. Neaman wrote the introduction to the book.[6] Neaman also writes about contemporary issues in European economics and foreign policy. In 2014 he co-published "LIght at the End of the Tunnel; the Eurozone's Sovereign Debt Problem in The Journal of World Economics.[7]

Neaman's latest book is about the youth revolts in Germany in the 1960s and terrorism in the 1970s, Free Radicals; Agitators, Hippies, Urban Guerillas and Germany's Youth Revolt of the 1960s and 1970s (Telos Press, 2016).[8]
