- Outstanding original English-language manuscripts in European cultural and intellectual history, selected by a five-member Mosse Series Editorial Committee made up of faculty from the history departments at UW–Madison and the Hebrew University and a representative of the UW Press.
- English translations of books in European cultural and intellectual history. The Mosse Series does not provide translation grants or subventions. The series Editorial Committee must approve the choice to include a translated book in the series and approve the quality of the translation.

Surreal Geographies
A New History of Holocaust Consciousness
Kathryn L. Brackney
“An erudite, beautifully written book that journeys from the Yiddish poetry of Avrom Sutzkever to Donna Haraway’s manifesto on the ‘Chthulucene.’ Brackney shows how artists have not always deemed the Holocaust ‘unrepresentable.’ Rather, through surrealist articulations including science fiction and abstraction, representations of the Shoah have been unapologetically produced from the very beginning. In this provocative reading, surrealist discourse on the Holocaust becomes the foundation for contemporary engagement with the Anthropocene as we confront an environmental Holocaust in an imagined—or nearly present—future.”
—Sheila Jelen, author of Salvage Poetics: Post-Holocaust American Jewish Folk Ethnographies

Propaganda and Persecution
The French Resistance and the “Jewish Question”
Renée Poznanski
“Renée Poznanski is one of the finest scholars of our time on the subject of France during the Holocaust and World War II. Her central question here—How much did the French Resistance care about Jews and antisemitism?—is timely, and she presents a mountain of evidence to support her thesis.”
—Ethan Katz, University of California, Berkeley
