An interdisciplinary work, this book examines questions of representing the past from the perspective of literary studies, social psychology, film studies, history, and cultural studies. Themes include transgenerational memory and remembrance, the air war and German literature, commemoration and silences, transnational reconciliation, and historical consciousness in the German present. The collected essays make clear that as the current discourse contributes toward an historically informed, differentiated understanding of individuals' roles in the Third Reich and World War Two, victim and perpetrator identities cannot be defined as exclusive from one another. The discourse emphasizes personal over collective experience and answers questions of responsibility and guilt on the individual level. 410 0$aInterdisciplinary German Cultural Studies 606 $aMemory$xPolitical aspects$zGermany 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$xHistoriography 606 $aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aConflict of generations$zGermany$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aJews in literature 607 $aGermany$xCivilization$xJewish influences 607 $aGermany$xRace relations$xHistory$y21st century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMemory$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945$xHistoriography. 615 0$aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aConflict of generations$xHistory 615 0$aJews in literature. 676 $a943.086072 701 $aCohen-Pfister$b Laurel$f1957-$01034952 701 $aWienro?der-Skinner$b Dagmar$01034953 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463740703321 996 $aVictims and perpetrators, 1933-1945$92454381 997 $aUNINA
