This book examines a wide range of young adult texts, both fiction and memoir, representing the experiences of young adults during WWII and the Holocaust. Author Rachel Dean-Ruzicka argues for a progressive reading of this literature. Tolerance Discourse and Young Adult Holocaust Literature contests the modern discourse of tolerance, encouraging educators and readers to more deeply engage with difference and identity when studying Holocaust texts. Young adult Holocaust literature is an important nexus for examining issues of identity and difference because it directly confronts systems of power, privilege, and personhood. The text delves into the wealth of material available and examines over forty books written for young readers on the Holocaust and, in the last chapter, neo-Nazism. The book also looks at representations of non-Jewish victims, such as the Romani, the disabled, and homosexuals. In addition to critical analysis of the texts, each chapter reads the discourses of tolerance and cosmopolitanism against present-day cultural contexts: ongoing debates regarding multicultural education, gay and lesbian rights, and neo-Nazi activities. The book addresses essential questions of tolerance and toleration that have not been otherwise considered in Holocaust studies or cultural studies of children's literature."--Cover. 410 0$aChildren's literature and culture. 606 $aYoung adult literature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aChildren's literature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in literature 606 $aToleration in literature 606 $aIdentity (Philosophical concept) in literature 615 0$aYoung adult literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aChildren's literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in literature. 615 0$aToleration in literature. 615 0$aIdentity (Philosophical concept) in literature. 676 $a820.99282 676 $a809.93358405318 700 $aDean-Ruzicka$b Rachel$0983082 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910153195703321 996 $aTolerance discourse and young adult Holocaust literature$92243675 997 $aUNINA
