Representations of the Holocaust changed dramatically in the 1990s, when film, literature, and works of visual art attracted international attention by provoking scandals. Holocaust art turned to genres and styles that had traditionally been considered taboo. This change raises many questions: Why the widespread provocation? Why are representational rules being broken at the turn of the millennium - rules that have been respected and observed for decades? What should we make of art of this kind? The contributors to this volume address these (and other) questions. They juxtapose conventional depictions of the Holocaust with recent works of art which reveal shifting paradigms in the fields of visual art, literature, film, pop culture, and aesthetic theory.

Holocaust as Fiction seeks to explain and critically evaluate the extraordinary success of Schlink's internationally acclaimed novel, The Reader, the widely read "Selb" detective trilogy, and two popular films based closely on his work. With the help of wide-ranging reception data, the work of Holocaust scholars, as well as cultural and legal reflections on the concept of guilt, Donahue elucidates not only these works, but the wider critical climate that has fostered their success.

Prendre l'Histoire à rebrousse-poil pour faire entendre les voix de ses victimes ; exposer la barbarie que cachent la culture et le progrès technique ; montrer que la mémoire n'est pas l'affaire du passé, mais du présent et que l'écriture peut et doit faire justice. Telle est l'entreprise d'Esther Cohen, qui s'inscrit entre autres dans le sillage de Walter Benjamin et Jacques Derrida. Son livre se veut, comme les œuvres qui le nourrissent, un acte de résistance contre le silence et l'indifférence qui ont été les complices de la Shoah comme des nombreux massacres qui ont continué de dévaster le monde contemporain. Primo Levi, Jean Améry, Jorge Semprun, Imre Kertész, mais encore Hannah Arendt, Albert Camus ou même Franz Kafka : les auteurs rassemblés dans cet ouvrage ont vécu les camps, en ont été les témoins historiques, ou en ont eu le sombre pressentiment. En les réunissant, Esther Cohen fait entrer en résonance quelques-unes des œuvres capitales du XXe siècle.
