This collection of essays by leading and new British scholars focuses on central issues in Holocaust studies. The topics discussed here include the history and work of the Research Centre for German and Austrian Exile Studies in London; controversies over Holocaust Museums, Holocaust Remembrance Day, and the "Holocaust industry"; a biography of Scottish-Jewish playwright C.P. Taylor, whose best-known play, "Good", is about Nazism; the representation of the Holocaust in diary, testimony, film and poetry; Primo Levi's work; and the scandal of Binjamin Wilkomirski's inauthentic testimony "Fragments". The collection is multidisciplinary, and provides a welcome addition to recent work in Holocaust studies which focuses exclusively on its reception and reputation in the USA. Rather, this volume charts British concerns. It has been commisssioned in memory of Bryan Burns, who taught at the University of Sheffield and had a central role in establishing the first British MA in Holocaust Studies; he was working on a study of ghetto diaries, focusing on Kovno, when he died in 2000.
