Meer over het boek

The book explores the evolution of memory culture in contemporary Germany, particularly in the context of Holocaust remembrance. It highlights the significance of archives shaped by the Nazi regime's bureaucratic excesses and the erasure of its victims. By examining various media, including memorials, documentary films, and prose narratives, it discusses how the archival turn influences political, ethical, and aesthetic dimensions of memory. Drawing on theorists like Freud and Derrida, it emphasizes the ongoing challenges and responsibilities of engaging with the Nazi past through "archive work."
