Barnouw's critique of the 'enduringly narrow post-Holocaust perspective on German guilt and the ensuing fixation on German remorse' questions taboos that the political and cultural elites in those three countries would rather leave alone.... [Barnouw] makes us understand why the maintenance of a privileged memory of the Nazi period and World War II may not survive much longer."" -- 606 $aCollective memory$zGermany 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$zGermany$xHistoriography 606 $aPhotography in historiography 606 $aNational characteristics, German 606 $aHistory$xPsychological aspects 607 $aGermany$xHistory$y1933-1945$xHistoriography 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCollective memory 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945$xHistoriography. 615 0$aPhotography in historiography. 615 0$aNational characteristics, German. 615 0$aHistory$xPsychological aspects. 676 $a940.53/072/043 700 $aBarnouw$b Dagmar$0457344 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457588703321 996 $aThe war in the empty air$91903430 997 $aUNINA
