The social history of the genocide, its representation in postwar culture, and new theoretical approaches stand at the forefront of current research in a range of disciplines. Analyses at the most intimate scaleof the individual or of a particular locale are juxtaposed with those that turn to broader studies of the war or postwar order. Complementing these different scales are theoretical investigations that address individual agency, moral judgment, and the construction of meaning and memory in the study of the victims of the Holocaust and in our understanding of society as a whole. Together they mark the contemporary scholarly landscape of Holocaust studies, which includes history as well as film and literary studies, philosophy, and religious studies (among other disciplines). Each of the volume's three sections contributes to understanding the Holocaust and postwar ramifications of the genocide by focusing on: 1) the history of specific communities of both victims and perpetrators; 2) postwar cultural representations; and 3) new theoretical understandings of each. The essays in this volume thus represent new interests in the field that contribute to building integrated histories of the Holocaust.

Recensioner i media

"We live at a time when the Holocaust has entered public consciousness in a major way. This means culture is free to represent, and distort, the Holocaust; witness the growing number of films, novels, poetic and other artistic expressions claiming to be 'inspired' by the Shoah. The present volume represents the leaven in the lump of Holocaust representation. The contributors are interested in revealing and unpacking historical complexities." -Alan Berger, coauthor of Third-Generation Holocaust Representation: Trauma, History, Memory
