TY - GEN T1 - Planet Auschwitz : Holocaust representation in science fiction and horror film and television A1 - Crim, Brian E. LA - English PP - New Brunswick PB - Rutgers University Press YR - 2020 UL - https://ebooks.jgu.edu.in/Record/ebsco_acadsubs_on1154014101 AB - "Planet Auschwitz explores the diverse ways in which the Holocaust influences and shapes science fiction and horror film and television by focusing on notable contributions from the last fifty years. The supernatural and extraterrestrial are rich and complex spaces with which to examine important Holocaust themes - trauma, guilt, grief, ideological fervor and perversion, industrialized killing, and the dangerous afterlife of Nazism after World War II. Planet Auschwitz explores why the Holocaust continues to set the standard for horror in the modern era and asks if the Holocaust is imaginable here on Earth, at least by those who perpetrated it, why not in a galaxy far, far away? The pervasive use of Holocaust imagery and plotlines in horror and science fiction reflects both our preoccupation with its enduring trauma and our persistent need to "work through" its many legacies"-- OP - 268 CN - PN1995.9.H53 C75 2020eb SN - 9781978801622 SN - 1978801629 SN - 9781978801646 SN - 1978801645 SN - 9781978801639 SN - 1978801637 SN - 9781978801615 SN - 1978801610 SN - 9781978801608 SN - 1978801602 KW - Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in motion pictures.
