| book description |
Until now, in the scholarly literature on the development of 'Holocaust consciousness' in the UK, the 1960s has been a missing decade. This book brings together an impressive cast of expert scholars to provide a much-needed corrective to the situation. It ranges widely across disciplines and cultural spheres, as well as the nations and regions of the UK, to reveal that what we now call 'Holocaust consciousness' was decisively created in the UK the 1960s. Britain and Holocaust Consciousness in the 1960s sheds light – remarkably for the first time – on British reactions to the 1961 Eichmann Trial. It considers as well the 1964 Dering v Uris libel trial in London, at the heart of which were horrific medical experiments at Auschwitz and which was covered extensively by the British press at the time. The book also covers key sites of Holocaust consciousness such as the Wiener Library and the Columbus Centre, a wealth of British cultural responses to the Holocaust from the period, including memoir literature, cinema, television, art and music, and incorporates vital material on refugees, survivors, gender and religion.
