Through an in-depth study of the largest and most widely available collection of videotaped interviews with survivors and other witnesses to the Holocaust, the University of Southern California Shoah Foundation's Visual History Archive, Jeffrey Shandler weighs the possibilities and challenges brought about by digital forms of public memory. The Visual History Archive's holdings are extensive-over 100,000 hours of video, including interviews with over 50,000 individuals-and came about at a time of heightened anxiety about the imminent passing of the generation of Holocaust survivors and other eyewitnesses. Now, the Shoah Foundation's investment in new digital media is instrumental to its commitment to remembering the Holocaust both as a subject of historical importance in its own right and as a paradigmatic moral exhortation against intolerance. Shandler not only considers the Archive as a whole, but also looks closely at individual survivors' stories, focusing on narrative, language, and spectacle to understand how Holocaust remembrance is mediated. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 610 20 USC Shoah Foundation Institute for Visual History and Education |vArchives. 650 0 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) |xHistoriography. 650 0 Holocaust survivors |vInterviews. 650 0 Collective memory. 650 0 Digital media. 610 27 USC Shoah Foundation Institute for Visual History and Education. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01936621 611 07 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00958866 650 7 Collective memory. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01739814 650 7 Digital media. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00893716 650 7 Historiography. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00958221 650 7 Holocaust survivors. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00958838 648 7 1939-1945 |2fast 655 7 Archives. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423700 655 7 Interviews. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423832 655 7 Interviews. |2lcgft 776 08 |iOnline version:Shandler, Jeffrey. |tHolocaust memory in the digital age. |dStanford, California : Stanford University Press, 2017 |z9781503602960 |w(DLC) 2016053579 830 0 Stanford studies in Jewish history and culture. 856 41 |uhttps://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/ushmm/detail.action?docID=5046837 |zHosted by ProQuest |3Electronic version(s) available. 852 0 |bstacks |hD804.348 |i.S45 2017 852 |bebook
