But There Was Love: Shaping the Memory of the Shoah - Hardcover

by Michal Govrin (Editor), Dana Freibach-Heifetz (Editor), Etty Benzaken (Editor)

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 at The Van Leer Jerusalem Institute led by Michal Govrin. The group positions the extraordinary Jewish and non-Jewish human struggle in facing dehumanization and extermination as the essence of the Shoah, challenging us with a profound ethical call.
