Studying the Holocaust Summary
|
Against a background of growing awareness of the Holocaust as an intrinsically important historical event and - equally - a greater readiness to view the Holocaust as a crucial reference point for all multi-cultural, humanistic and liberal education, this work is a highly original and invaluable aid to understanding its moral, historical and educational significance. This cross-disciplinary work has been designed to provide a unique source of help both to sixth form and undergraduate students and to teachers at all levels in fields as disparate as history, humanities, education, literature, drama, psychology, religious education, philosophy and sociology. It contains: * an historical overview and of the holocaust and the years immediately preceding it * key historical documents, each with a brief introduction * a range of readings and useable ideas for imaginative, challenging and stimulating class-based discussions and other activities * an examination of the nature and extent of the crime of genocide in the modern age * a host of suggested questions, thematically arranged, together with related bibliographies * a reference section containing brief biographies of key personalities and a glossary of essential terms * suggested educational and philosophical principles on which an enlightened and effective approach to grappling with the meaning and complexity of this subject may be based * guidance for both student and teacher through the conceptual and historiographical spectrum of holocaust scholarship. |
