This volume provides an indispensable resource for anyone studying
the Holocaust. The reference entries are enhanced by documents and
other tools that make this volume a vital contribution to Holocaust
research. This volume showcases a detailed look at the multifaceted
attempts by Germany's Nazi regime, together with its collaborators,
to annihilate the Jews of Europe during the Holocaust. Several
introductory essays, along with a rich chronology, reference
entries, primary documents, images, and a bibliography provide
crucial information that readers will need in order to try to
understand the Holocaust while undertaking research on that
horrible event. This text looks not only at the history of the
Holocaust, but also at examples of resistance (through armed
violence, attempts at rescue, or the very act of survival itself);
literary and cultural expressions that have attempted to deal with
the Holocaust; the social and psychological implications of the
Holocaust for today; and how historians and others have attempted
to do justice to the memory of those killed and seek insight into
why the Holocaust happened in the first place. Comprehensively
examines all angles of the Holocaust within one easily readable
volume written by experts Includes primary documents, with
appropriate introductions, to set the historical and contemporary
contexts for the entries Contains useful chronologies of the events
surrounding the Holocaust Provides a number of contextualizing
essays on various facets of the Holocaust, which precede the
reference entries themselves
