Memorializing the Holocaust: Gender, Genocide and Collective Memory
Jacobs, Janet. Memorializing the Holocaust: Gender, Genocide and Collective Memory. London: I.B. Tauris, 2010. Print Book.
This book examines the portrayal of gender in Holocaust memorial culture. Jacobs reveals how images of violence against women have become universal symbols for mass atrocities and the impact Holocaust commemoration has had on gender stereotypes, conceptions of masculinity and femininity, and representations of women in national remembrance of genocide.
