Beskrivning

A Winner of the Association for the Study of the Middle East and Africa 2023 Bernard Lewis PrizeThe chapters in this volume examine a few facets in the drama of how the survivors of the Holocaust contended with life after the darkest night in Jewish history. They include the Earl Harrison mission and significant report, the effort to keep Europe’s borders open to refugee infiltration, the murder of the first Jew in Germany after V-E Day and its aftermath, and the iconic sculptures of Nathan Rapoport and Poland’s landscape of Holocaust memory up to the present day. Joining extensive archival research and a limpid prose, Professor Monty Noam Penkower again displays a definitive mastery of his craft.

Recensioner i media

“Monty Penkower’s After the Holocaust is a detailed and assiduously researched volume consisting of five expansive essays on the postwar era. Penkower is skillful in his grouping of these essays, moving fluidly from one topic to the next as he focuses on a number of less familiar historical events and aspects of Jewish life in the wake of the Holocaust. As such, After the Holocaust is a welcome addition to the growing body of literature on the post- Holocaust era.”—Batya Brutin, Beit Berl Academic College
