Product Description

This book examines the issues surrounding the representation of Jews within the context of museum exhibitions and depictions of the Holocaust.

Casting new light on the issues surrounding the visual representation of Jews, the work of museum practitioners in relation to historical presentations and to the use of photographs in exhibitions, the study of the representation of minority-majority relations more broadly, and the use of exhibition visits as an educational tool, the book contributes to a better understanding of the purpose and functioning of national exhibitions in debates about national identity.
