Abstract:
An annotated bibliography of books and articles in English (pp. 309-320), preceded by an essay which discusses monuments and memorials to the Holocaust in Europe since 1945. During the immediate postwar period, labor camp and concentration camp sites were often used for other purposes. There was a resurgence of interest in the Holocaust in the 1960s-70s, due to the Eichmann trial (1961) and depiction of the Holocaust in the theater, films, and literature, which resulted in several concentration camp memorials as well as the placing of historic markers at the sites of destroyed synagogues and local labor camps. In the 1980s there was a further development of local Holocaust centers, museums, and memorials. Discusses, also, memorialization in the U.S. in the 1980s.
Note:
Including an annotated bibliography (pp. 309-320).
