From interpretations of the Holocaust to fascist thought and
anti-fascists' responses, and the problems of memorializing this
difficult past, this essay collection tackles topics which are
rarely studied in conjunction. As well as historical analyses of
fascist and anti-fascist thinking, Stone analyses the challenges
involved in writing history in general and Holocaust historiography
in particular. Following an introductory essay on 'history and its
discontents', the wide-ranging chapters deal with individual
thinkers of very different sorts, such as Hannah Arendt, Rolf
Gardiner, Jules Monnerot and Saul Friedlander, movements such as
interwar rural revivalism, the contested translation of Mein Kampf,
emigre anti-fascists' writings, and the relationship between memory
and history, especially with respect to atrocities like genocide.
This unique collection of essays on a wide variety of topics
contributes to understanding the roots and consequences of
mid-twentieth-century Europe's great catastrophe.
