Learning about Shoah through Literature [teacher]
The present area has been created to provide students with a webliography that may support them more effective study activities about topics and themes dealing with the Holocaust.
In particular the suggestions provided may represent a different strategy to ask students for study and written contributions.
Considered they are tacking the problem of personal responsibility in the face of tragedies like the Shoah as shown in the book that read in its complete version suggestions may support them in designing apersonal paths and avenues of study
  • First steps
  • Chronology of the Holocaust
  • Two Different Names for the Same Horror
  • Kristallnacht
  • The Archivist
  • Writing a Critical Review of a Book or Article


  • An extract from a reader's review after reading the Archivist may provide an example about the texture of the novel."Contrary to most of the other reviews I found the middle third interesting once I got into it. Judith's diaries did not seem long at all. I thought they very consicley chronicled her time at Hayden, and her feelings toward everyone in her life. Cooley does an excellent job of staying concise yet fleshed out. She also does a very good job dealing with the big and small issues, WWII, The Holocaust, as well as in individual relationships of the characters and not making it seem pretentous." (Reviewer: Richard Stoehr "Differed From")
