I would like to thank Miriam Ben-Peretz for her thorough and thought-provoking response to my article, “Simulating Survival. ” Especially in light of her personal experiences as a refugee from Hitler’s Germany, I was impressed by her ability to judge my narrative with even-handed precision and to render clear-headed critiques. I don’t mean to imply that eyewit-nesses to events are unreliable judges of them, only that the gulf between lived history and learned history1 is vast and that the emotional stakes in the representation of the former seem to me necessarily to trump those involved in the latter. It must be a strange thing, indeed, to read about a simulation, not of abstract historical events but of personally lived history. That said, I am not at all surprised that Ben-Peretz reaches conclusions about the simulation’s moral weight that are different from my own. In this rejoinder, I discuss a few of the excellent points she raises, attempting to illuminate the convergence and disparities in our visions of Ms. Bess’s class. My rejoinder primarily addresses two of the sections in Ben-Peretz’s essay
Aesthetics · Art · Class (philosophy · Convergence (economics · Epistemology · Literature · Narrative · Political science · Psychoanalysis · Representation (politics · Sociology · The Holocaust · Vision · Anthropology · Educator Training and Historical Pedagogy · History · Innovative Teaching Methodologies in Social Sciences · Law · Memory, Trauma, and Commemoration · Philosophy · Psychology
