the logo for the Mosse Series is a white M and H stacked vertically, on a red circle, within a dark-grey box.George L. Mosse Series in Modern European Cultural and Intellectual History

The Mosse series promotes the vibrant international collaboration and community that George L. Mosse created during his lifetime. The series is committed to the translation of major innovative works by outstanding scholars in European cultural and intellectual history on topics close to the research interests of George Mosse. Besides translations, the series also publishes the Mosse lectures—a series of three lectures given every two years either at the University of Wisconsin–Madison or the Hebrew University in Jerusalem.

 This book is based on the George L. Mosse lectures that Jan Assmann gave at the Hebrew University in December of 2004. As Assmann states in his introduction, this is a work "about the relationship between God and gods" but not primarily about the history of Biblical religion.  Rather he sees it as "the history not of monotheism, but of an idea, which he calls "the Mosaic distinction," the idea of an exclusive and emphatic Truth (with a capital "T") which sets God apart from everything that is not God and must not be worshiped, and which sets religion apart from what comes to be shunned as superstition, paganism or heresy."
