Beschreibung
In this trenchant meditation on photographs from an atrocity in Latvia during the Holocaust, Nadine Fresco argues for the vital importance of photographs-and nontraditional sources more broadly-for understanding the Holocaust. She confronts charged questions around guilt and testimony while teasing out the subtle implications of camera angles, photo sequencing, and body language, helping us to see anew the perspectives of victims, perpetrators, and others who witnessed the brutality of the Holocaust.
