In this book, Morris explores the intersection of curriculum
studies, Holocaust studies, and psychoanalysis, using the Holocaust
to raise issues of memory and representation. Arguing that memory
is the larger category under which history is subsumed, she
examines the ways in which the Holocaust is represented in texts
written by historians and by novelists. For both, psychological
transference, repression, denial, projection, and reversal
contribute heavily to shaping personal memories, and may therefore
determine the ways in which they construct the past. The way the
Holocaust is represented in curricula is the way it is remembered.
Interrogations of this memory are crucial to our understandings of
who we are in today's world. The subject of this text--how this
memory is represented and how the process of remembering it is
taught--is thus central to education today.
