What History Tells presents an impressive collection of critical papers from the September 2001 conference ""An Historian's Legacy: George L. Mosse and Recent Research on Fascism, Society, and Culture."" This book examines Mosse's historiographical legacy, first within the context of his own life and the internal development of his work and, second by tracing the many ways Mosse influenced the subsequent study of contemporary history, European cultural history, and modern Jewish history. The contributors include the distinguished scholars Walter Laqueur, David Sabcan, Johann Sommerville, Emilio Gentile, Roger Griffin, Saul Friedlander, Jay Winter, Rudy Koshar, Robert Nye, Janna Bourke, Shulamit Volkov, and Steven E. Aschheim.
Can there ever be justice for the Holocaust? During the
1990s--triggered by lawsuits in the United States against Swiss
banks, German corporations, insurance companies, and owners of
valuable works of art--claimants and their lawyers sought to
rectify terrible wrongs committed more than a half century earlier.
"Some Measure of Justice" explores this most recent wave of
justice-seeking for the Holocaust: what it has been, why it emerged
when it did, how it fits with earlier reparation to the Jewish
people, its significance for the historical representation of the
Holocaust, and its implications for justice-seeking in our
time.
