Description
Discusses efforts to incorporate the Holocaust into the broader study of Jewish history. Miron discusses the origins and implications of this divide and suggests two possible avenues for merging the two separate historical entities: through the growing research on survivors after the war, and through the cultural historians' theoretical perspective of the 'cultural turn' in recent years
