The Holocaust: The Basics is a concise introduction to the study of this seismic event in mid twentieth-century human history.
The book takes an original approach as both a narrative and thematic introduction to the topic, and provides a core foundation for readers embarking upon their own study. It examines a range of perspectives and subjects surrounding the Holocaust, including:
- the perpetrators of the Holocaust
- the victims
- resistance to the Holocaust
- liberation
- legacies and survivors' memories of the Holocaust.
Suppported by a chronology, glossary, questions for discussion, and boxed case studies that focus the reader's thoughts and develop their appreciation of the subjects considered more broadly, The Holocaust: The Basics is the ideal introduction to this controversial and widely debated topic for both students and the more general reader.
Paul R. Bartrop is Professor of History and Director of the Center for Judaic, Holocaust, and Genocide Studies at Florida Gulf Coast University, Fort Myers, USA.
