But There Was Love : Shaping the Memory of the Shoah

Abstract

But There Was Love—Shaping the Memory of the Shoah proposes a new paradigm for Shoah remembrance in today’s cultural and political reality. It derives from the four-year workings of a group of researchers and artists in Jerusalem led by Michal Govrin. The group positions the extraordinary Jewish and human struggle in facing dehumanization and extermination as the essence of the Shoah, challenging us with a profound ethical call.
