This book is the first full-length study of the museum object as a
memory medium in history exhibitions about the Nazi era, the Second
World War, and the Holocaust. Over recent decades, German and
Austrian exhibition-makers have engaged in significant programmes
of object collection, often in collaboration with witnesses and
descendants. At the same time, exhibition-makers have come to
recognise the degree to which the National Socialist era was
experienced materially, through the loss, acquisition, imposition,
destruction, and re-purposing of objects. In the decades after
1945, encounters with material culture from the Nazi past
continued, both within the family and in the public sphere. In
analysing how these material engagements are explored in the
museum, the book not only illuminates a key aspect of German and
Austrian cultural memory but contributes to wider debates about
relationships between the human and object worlds.
