The Holocaust Memorial Museum: Sacred Secular Space (The Holocaust and its Contexts)

The Holocaust Memorial Museum: Sacred Secular Space (The Holocaust and its Contexts)

by Avril Alba (Author)

Synopsis

The Holocaust Memorial Museum reveals and traces the transformation of ancient Jewish symbols, rituals, archetypes and narratives deployed in these sites. Demonstrating how cloaking the 'secular' history of the Holocaust in sacred garb, memorial museums generate redemptive yet conflicting visions of the meaning and utility of Holocaust memory.
