Few essays about the Holocaust are better known or more important
than Primo Levi's reflections on what he called "the gray zone," a
reality in which moral ambiguity and compromise were pronounced. In
this volume accomplished Holocaust scholars, among them Raul
Hilberg, Gerhard L. Weinberg, Christopher Browning, Peter Hayes,
and Lynn Rapaport, explore the terrain that Levi identified.
Together they bring a necessary interdisciplinary focus to bear on
timely and often controversial topics in cutting-edge Holocaust
studies that range from historical analysis to popular culture.
While each essay utilizes a particular methodology and argues for
its own thesis, the volume as a whole advances the claim that the
more we learn about the Holocaust, the more complex that event
turns out to be. Only if ambiguities and compromises in the
Holocaust and its aftermath are identified, explored, and at times
allowed to remain--lest resolution deceive us--will our awareness
of the Holocaust and its implications be as full as possible.
