Content

The Holocaust stands as one of the most formative moments of the twentieth century. Numerous artists have taken on the difficult task of representing some of the events related to it. In this course, we will look at recent narrative fiction dealing with the Holocaust. Topics such as memory, remembrance, perpetration, the ethics of writing, and the limits of representation will structure the course discussions.
