Caught by History: Holocaust Effects in Contemporary Art, Literature, and Theory 1st edition
Ernst Van Alphen
In the face of strong moral and aesthetic pressure to deal with the Holocaust in strictly historical and documentary modes, this book discusses why and how reenactment of the Holocaust in art and imaginative literature can be successful in simultaneously presenting, analyzing, and working through this apocalyptic moment in human history.
