Märksõnad:
This interdisciplinary study, written by a Christian scholar and a Jewish scholar, explores the various ways in which the Holocaust has been studied and assesses its continuing significance. In this revised edition, Roth (philosophy; director, Center for the Study of the Holocaust, Genocide, and Human Rights, Claremont McKenna College) and Rubenstein (president emeritus; religion, University of Bridgeport) take into account developments in Holocaust studies since the original book was published in 1987, and place renewed emphasis on religious factors in the roots of the Holocaust. They also include new sections on film, art, and literature responses to the Holocaust. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
