Descriptions, Reviews, etc.

Description: At an extreme, all Holocaust representation must face the test of whether its referent would not be more authentically expressed by silence--that is, by the absence of representation.

Brief description: Berel Lang is a professor of humanities at Trinity College. His many books include Writing and the Moral Self, Mind's Bodies: Thought in the Act, Heidegger's Silence, and Act and Idea in the Nazi Genocide.

Review Quotes: Holocaust Representation tackles the thorny subject of ethics and art as they bear on works commemorating or referring to the Holocaust.
