Trespassing Through Shadows

Memory, Photography, and the Holocaust

Boekbeoordeling

Meer over het boek

The first book to interpret the role of photography in current representations of the Holocaust.Photographs of the Holocaust bear a double burden: to act as history lessons for future generations so we will “never forget” and to provide a means of mourning. In Trespassing through Shadows, Andrea Liss examines the inherent difficulties and productive possibilities of using photographs to bear witness, initiating a critical dialogue about the ways the post-Auschwitz generation has employed these documents to represent Holocaust memory and history."Liss experiences creative freedom and infectious exuberance for her topic that she passes along to her reader. After completing her book, I feld hope for the future of Holocaust representation as a carrier of memory and responsibility."— East Bay Express Books
