Why did men and women in one of the best educated countries in the
Western world set out to get rid of Jews? In this book, Judith M.
Hughes focuses on how historians' efforts to grapple anew with
matters of actors' meanings, intentions, and purposes have prompted
a return to psychoanalytically informed ways of thinking. Hughes
makes her case with fine-grained analyses of books by Hugh
Trevor-Roper, Ian Kershaw, Daniel Goldhagen, Saul Friedlander,
Christopher Browning, Jan Gross, Hannah Arendt and Gitta Sereny.
All of the authors pose psychological questions; the more astute
among them shed fresh light on the Holocaust - without making the
past any less disturbing.
