Dieses Buch widmet sich dem detektivischen Selbstverständnis der Geschichtswissenschaft und der Beziehung von Historik, Kriminalistik, Geschichtsschreibung und Kriminalliteratur. Während sich Historiker nach der Einführung des vollgültigen Indizienbeweises im 19. Jahrhundert als Untersuchungsrichter verstehen konnten, wird im 20. Jahrhundert der Detektiv zum literarischen Vorbild historiographischer Forschungspraktiken. Zunehmend übernehmen jetzt auch Krimi-Detektive historische Ermittlungen: Am Beispiel britischer, französischer und deutscher Krimis über den Nationalsozialismus widmet sich diese Untersuchung den Konsequenzen der Darstellung von Geschichte als Kriminalroman. »[T]hese und Darstellung der gut lesbaren, faktenfreudig erzählten und auf Nachvollziehbarkeit bedachten Arbeit [überzeugen] vollkommen. Denn Saupe belegt, dass es wenig erkenntnisfördernd ist, Geschichtsschreibung und Literatur engzuführen und auf archetypische Plotstrukturen zu reduzieren, oder umgekehrt mit Verweis aufs Faktische die Kontamination historiographischer Erzählungen durch fachexterne Narrative zu negieren. Vielmehr ist von Wechselverhältnissen auszugehen, die mithilfe der Begriffe Fakt und Fiktion, Literatur und Geschichte, U und E kaum sinnvoll erhellt werden können.« David Oels, H-Soz-u-Kult, 07.04.2010 »[Achim Saupe zeigt] interessante Interdependenzen zwischen Historiographie und Kriminalliteratur auf, die als Ausgangspunkt für weitere Studien dienen können.« Christian Jung, www.scienceblogs.de, 31.05.2010 Besprochen in: IASL online, 25.01.2010, Jens Jäger

"The shadow of the Second World War was filled with many terrible crimes, such as genocide, forced migration and labour, human-made famine, forced sterilizations, and dispossession. None of these atrocities were new, but they all occurred on an unprecedented scale. Authenticity and Victimhood after the Second World War examines victim groups constructed in the twentieth century in the aftermath of these experiences. The collection explores the concept of authenticity through an examination of victims' histories and the construction of victimhood in Europe and East Asia. Chapters consider how notions of historical authenticity influence the self-identification and public recognition of a given social group, the tensions arising from individual and group experiences of victimhood, and the resulting, sometimes divergent, interpretation of historical events. Drawing from case studies on topics including the Holocaust, the siege of Leningrad, American air raids on Japan, and forced migrations from Eastern Europe, Authenticity and Victimhood after the Second World War shows the trends towards a victim-centred collective memory and the role trends play in memory politics and public commemorative culture."--

This edited volume breaks new ground and opens up new perspectives by capturing the role played by claims to authenticity in populist discourses in Brazil, India and Ukraine. By conceiving of both triumphant populism and increasing demands for authenticity as expressions of crisis, the volume seeks to satisfy the need to take a closer look at yearnings for orientation in a globalised world that is often associated with rapid social change and the disappearance of old certainties. Starting from the assumption that media play a crucial role for populist discourses of authenticity, the volume moves beyond conventional and social media by expanding its focus to media in formal education, notably school textbooks and curricula. These two particular media formats lastingly shape younger generations and thus the future. The proposed volume adopts global perspectives from three postcolonial countries that are often beyond the scope of studies dealing with populist discourses and media entanglements - insights that contribute new aspects to international scholarly debates.
