Polin: Studies in Polish Jewry Volume 20: Making Holocaust Memory

Polin: Studies in Polish Jewry #20

by Gabriel N. Finder (Editor)

The reconciliation of Jewish and Polish memories of the Holocaust is the central issue in contemporary Polish-Jewish relations, yet this is the first volume to examine Poles’ and Jews’ shared yet divisive memory of the Holocaust in a comprehensive way. The ‘New Views’ section features several examples of recent innovative research in other areas of Polish–Jewish studies, including the history of the New Synagogue in Poznan which was converted by the Nazis into a swimming-pool.
