American Public Memory and the Holocaust - Performing Gender, Shifting Orientations (Hardcover)

The recent rise of global antisemitism, Holocaust denial, and
American white nationalism has created a dangerous challenge to
Holocaust public memory on an unprecedented scale. This book is a
timely exploration of the ways in which next-generation Holocaust
survivors combine old and new media to bring newer generations of
audiences into active engagement with Holocaust histories. Readers
have been socialized to expect memorialization artifacts about the
Holocaust to come in the form of diaries, memoirs, photos, or
documentaries in which gender is often absent or marginalized. This
book shows a complex process of remembering the past that can
positively shift our orientations toward others. Using gender,
performance, and rhetoric as a frame, Lisa Costello questions
public memory as gender neutral while showing how new forms of
memorialization like digital archives, YouTube posts, hybrid
memoirs, and small films build emotional connections that bring us
closer to the past.
