Because of its comprehensive nature and intricate scenography, the new \u003cem\u003eHolocaust Galleries\u003c\/em\u003e are at the centre of almost all recent major narrative, political, and ethical debates about Holocaust representation in museums. The book provides an ideal global case-study understanding the possibilities and limitations of re-presenting trauma and violence in museums today and whether Holocaust exhibitions can promote democratic, civic, or human rights values, making it an important resource for museum practitioners, public history educators, and university researchers alike, interested in Historical, Museum, Memory, Holocaust, Genocide, or Cultural Studies. The volume brings together texts written by museum practitioners and academic scholars. It is divided in three parts: a long essay by James Bulgin, Head of Content for the new \u003cem\u003eHolocaust Galleries\u003c\/em\u003e, about the genesis and implementation of the exhibition, supplemented with briefer essays by educators and community members involved in the development of the exhibition, an extensive interview by Stephan Jaeger with IWM researchers James Bulgin and Suzanne Bardgett, and an extensive part with six critical essays by university scholars analysing the new Holocaust Galleries from numerous theoretical angles. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephan Jaeger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3111427528\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783111427522\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e de Gruyter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/21\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 410\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Stephan Jaeger","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46927951692031,"sku":"9783111427522","price":112.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6b5725ba-90d9-429a-8bfa-7be60ae57c2a.jpg?v=1749373477","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-new-holocaust-galleries-at-stephan-jaeger-9783111427522","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
