%X Alfred Döblin and Joseph Roth wrote their texts about Poland and Polish Jews at the same time (1924–1927). Th e article not only compares their works, but also documents that Roth might have felt called upon by Döblin to write essays Th e Wandering Jews. He was indebted to Döblin for giving him the courage to publicly admit his East-Jewish roots and was inspired by his subjective, personal narrative. In several passages he refers to Journey in Poland and enters into dialogue with Döblin.
