description In 1934, Enrique Espinoza (pseudonym of Samuel Glusberg) published his second book of short stories, Ruth and Noemí. In that volume, he once again deals with one of the main issues of Argentine Jewish literature of the early twentieth century: how to conceive intercultural relations between Jews and non-Jews in pursuit of the construction of a national new belonging. This article aims to analyze the conceptions about the wandering of Jewish migrants, intercultural relations and the possibility of elaborating a new belonging in Argentina in “The White Shadow” and “Ruth and Naomi”, two stories of Ruth and Naomi. This analysis will demonstrate, on the one hand, that these conceptions are expressed in both stories through a symbolic reelaboration of figures linked to the Jewish cultural heritage (such as Schlemiel, Ruth and Esther) and of a figure reappropriated from the anti-Jewish Christian discourse (Ashavero). On the other hand, this analysis will show the presence of a set of postulates about intercultural relations in both stories. According to these postulates, not only the end of anti-Semitism, but also a new and flexible relationship with Jewish traditions, would be indispensable conditions for the construction of a new belonging for Jewish migrants.
