Methodology in the Academic Teaching of the Holocaust cover

A companion volume to Methodology in the Academic Teaching of Judaism (UPA, 1987), this book seeks to address the central issues of human life and meaning in the post-Holocaust world. Though representing a variety of disciplines and religious backgrounds, the authors are united by a fundamental recognition that after the Holocaust, the entire enterprise of being human has been called into serious question. Co-published with Studies in Judaism.

The Studies in Judaica series cover a wide range of historical, religious and literary disciplines. Scholars interested in the Holocaust will find this an invaluable collection of historical, philosophic and theological studies of the Holocaust. * gem *
