The Anarchy of Nazi Memorabilia
The Anarchy of Nazi Memorabilia: From Things of Tyranny to Troubled Treasure by Michael Hughes2021. 260 pp. Routledge, London. ISBN 9780367422004
Testimonies of Resistance
Nicholas Chare and Dominic Williams are already well known for their contributions to understanding the testimony and the cultural representations of the Auschwitz-Birkenau Sonderkommando, and this edited volume extends their earlier work. They not only argue for the ethical centrality of the Sonderkommando to understanding the Holocaust, but also advocate a more expansive definition of testimonial and representational evidence, both necessary to…
Integrative, Interdisciplinary Database Design for the Spatial Humanities
Databases are central to the digital, spatial, and geohumanities. There is surprisingly little scholarly literature, however, on the process of database construction in humanities projects. This article describes a process of interdisciplinary database design that emerged in the course of building the core sections of an historical GIS of Holocaust ghettos. The process foregrounds collaborative design, testing that purposely flushes out paradigma…
The Expanded Field of German Art and the Holocaust
Hitler’s Geographies
Few topics, if any, in human history demand a spatial analysis more than war and genocide. War is, of course, by definition profoundly concerned with territorial control, and genocide is founded on a notion that racial presence for one group in a particular space is racist removal of another. No modern regime has combined these two grotesquely complementary goals as well as Hitler’s Germany. Paulo Giaccaria and Claudio Minca’s new anthology on Hi…
Through Amateur Eyes
Building the Nazi Economy
Adam Tooze’s Wages of Destruction argues for the fundamental economic reasoning that brought Hitler and the Nazi elite to the conclusion that war and genocide were the twin means of achieving their ends. But what happens if we introduce culture into this equation, a term of clear importance to Hitler and to many of the individuals Tooze has identified as key to understanding the economic developments, not least of whom was Hitler’s favourite arch…

Gerhard Richter and Adolf Eichmann
It is an art-historical truth almost universally acknowledged that, with few exceptions, the Nazi past remained a taboo topic in the immediate postwar period either for discussion or as an artistic theme in West Germany. While this taboo appears to have been fundamentally shattered (particularly in the late 1970s by Anselm Kiefer and others), the occasional earlier works by artists such as Wolf Vostell or Joseph Beuys that thematised the National…
Architecture of Oppression
This book re-evaluates the architectural history of Nazi Germany and looks at the development of the forced-labour concentration camp system. Through an analysis of such major Nazi building projects as the Nuremberg Party Rally Grounds and the rebuilding of Berlin, Jaskot ties together the development of the German building economy, state architectural goals and the rise of the SS as a political and economic force. As a result, The Architecture o…
