Description
"This volume seeks to help readers become more aware of issues such as these as they confront the use of the Holocaust in our contemporary world. It seeks to help them approach discussion of the Holocaust more critically, to probe the disparity between how it is often invoked in the media, how it is sometimes regarded in popular general histories and how it is addressed in scholarly writing. It highlights the importance of examining historical contexts and the nature of published source materials from which we glean our understanding of history. In short, this book aspires to help readers understand that the Holocaust, like all historical events, happened not in black and white, but in all the nuances of full living colour, and that its impact has continued to reverberate with no less complexity through our lives."--Jacket.
