Description
Summary:As the last Holocaust perpetrators go to trial and the last survivors give their testimony, and despite Adorno's injunction against artistic representation of the Shoah, artists continue to create works dealing with the Nazis’ genocide. Historians and literary critics continue to discover unknown or misunderstood material, and to reconsider issues of our painful past. Professor Edna Aizenberg's latest book challenges the cliché that South America, and especially its Southern Cone, provided fertile ground for Nazi war criminals and their sympathizers.
