The texture of memory : holocaust memorials and meaning / James E. Young
Type : LivreGenre : Auteur: Auteur, YOUNG, JamesEditeur : London : Yale University Press , 1993Description matérielle : 1 vol. (398 p.) : photogr.ISBN : 9780300059915 ; 978-0-300-05991-5.Résumé : "For the Germans and Austrians, memorializing the Holocaust has required public recognition of their crimes; for the Jews, it has required public expression of their suffering. As James Young brilliantly demonstrates, each monument is charged with the often highly problematic struggle between collective memory and national self-image, self-interest, and the aspiration toward a future. Through the memorials and monuments, Young illuminates the process whereby the meaning of the Holocaust continues to be redefined in each new generation in Europe, Israel, and America. This richly illustrated book is a groundbreaking study of the fusion of Holocaust memory and public art in contemporary life."
