The Holocaust in American Life
The American National Narrative of the Holocaust: There Isn't Any
Before explaining why there is no American of the Holocaust it is a good idea to discuss what we might mean by a narrative of the Holocaust, or of anything else. It is not self-evident what the phrase describes; what the criteria are for designating an account a narrative.

Response to Lederhendler and Lang
T am, of course, pleased that Eli Lederhendler had so many complimentary things to say about The Holocaust in American Life. In my response I'll accentuate the negative: concentrate on points of disagreement in the interests of fruitful engagement. Lederhendler has two major criticisms of the book. First, he believes that I underrate the influence of the Holocaust on American Jewry in the late 1940s and early 1950s; he suggests that there was a H…

The Death of) The Ethics of Historical Practice (and Why i am not in Mourning)

That Noble Dream: The 'Objectivity Question' and the American Historical Profession
The aspiration to relate the past 'as it really happened' has been the central goal of American professional historians since the late nineteenth century. In this remarkable history of the profession, Peter Novick shows how the idea and ideal of objectivity were elaborated, challenged, modified, and defended over the last century. Drawing on the unpublished correspondence as well as the published writings of hundreds of American historians from J…
