Description
These essays investigate moral and ethical questions concerning the Holocaust and try to place the Judeocide in a philosophic schema. Lang argues that abstractions from the Enlightenment and from Kant's individualism gave strong support to Nazi theories. The book also deals with artistic delineation, the essence of malignancy and other matters.
