"In 1988 a group of philosophers founded the Society for the Philosophic Study of Genocide and the Holocaust (SPSGH). Its aim was to examine the philosophical implications of the Holocaust, c…ontending that not enough study had been devoted to the philosophy behind Hitler's destruction of the Jews. Contemporary Portrayals, a collection of essays by 22 contributors, is the result of an international conference of the SPSGH in Bonn in 1997. The essays explore five themes: witnesses and testimonies, morality and ethics, art and poetry, history and memory, and the crisis of representation. Among the philosophical questions considered are how is the power of language used to distort reality? and What are the consequences of excluding a whole group of people from the definition of humanity? The essays are erudite, to be sure, and not for everyone, but they are fascinating in content and highly relevant as we look back on the horrors of the twentieth century." - George Cohen Contributors include Jeff Hoover, Virginia Q.
