Rather than limiting herself to polemics about the "proper" approach to traumatic history, Karyn Ball explores recent trends in intellectual history that govern a contemporary ethics of scholarship about the Holocaust. She examines the scholarly reception of Goldhagen's Hitler's Willing Executioners, the debates culminating in Eisenman's Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe in Berlin, Lyotard's response to negations of testimony about the gas chambers, psychoanalytically informed frameworks for the critical study of traumatic history, and a conference on feminist approaches to the Holocaust and genocide. Ball's book bridges the gap between psychoanalysis and Foucault's understanding of disciplinary power in order to highlight the social implications of traumatic history.SUNY series, insinuations.Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)HistoriographyHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)GermanyInfluenceDenkmal für die ermordeten Juden Europas (Berlin, Germany)Holocaust memorialsPsychoanalysis and cultureHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)Historiography.Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)Influence.Denkmal für die ermordeten Juden Europas (Berlin, Germany)Holocaust memorials.Psychoanalysis and culture.940.53/18072Ball Karyn781180MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910959135703321Disciplining the holocaust1668635UNINA
