OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Social Groups and Experiences of the Holocaust
Combining Burzlaff’s historiographical overview with a chapter from Fulbrook’s recent book, these readings explore the relations between social groupings and the Holocaust. They raise questions about how to reconcile the Holocaust as a defining event in people’s lives with the variety of wartime experiences, bringing together debates on categorization, politics, geography and community.
Jan Burzlaff, ‘Confronting the Communal Grave: A Reassessment of Social Relations During the Holocaust in Eastern Europe’, The Historical Journal 63.4 (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2019), pp. 1054-1077.
Mary Fulbrook, Reckonings: Legacies of Nazi Persecution and The Quest for Justice, (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2018), ch. 6 ‘Defining Experiences’, pp. 141-174.
