| Abstract | "This book includes analyses of twenty-first literature about the Holocaust originally published in Dutch, Polish, Russian, Hebrew, German, and English, as well as on the different cultural traditions in which the works were created and the national narratives that influenced them. Chapters focus on children's and Young Adult Literature and literature intended for adults. Together the authors highlight contemporary trends in writing about the Shoah in literature temporally removed from the historical events. This collection highlights the commonalities and divergences our team identified when applying a comparatist framework to Holocaust representation across national and linguistic borders. This volume is timely given the increasingly complex pathways of international publishing; the multiplicity of positions occupied by authors; and the polyphonic engagement of the works with material cultures, memorialization efforts, and distortion or outright denial of the Holocaust on the international stage"-- Provided by publisher. |
