Nazi and Holocaust Representations in Anglo-American Popular Culture, 1945¿2020

Irreverent Remembrance

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book analyzes sensationalized Nazi and Holocaust representations in Anglo-American cultural and political discourses. Recognizing that this history is increasingly removed from contemporary life, it explains how irreverent representations can help rejuvenate the story for successive generations of new learners. Surveying seventy-five-years of transatlantic activities, the work erects counterposing categorizes of ¿constructive and destructive memorializing,¿ providing scholars with a new framework for elucidating both this history and its historicization.
