This year’s conference offers scholars and educators the chance to explore new avenues of research and collaboration in relation to Holocaust Studies. Our theme draws on a very wide definition of the archive, referring to collections and repositories of an official or unofficial kind, artefactual or virtual, personal or institutional. The archive in this sense encompasses ideas and theories, cultural practice, music, art, literature, television and film, private correspondence, documentary and museum collections, books, relics, landscapes, photographs, artefacts and other phenomena.
All conferences of the British Association for Holocaust Studies (BAHS) are inter- and cross-disciplinary, bringing together an international body of academics, teachers and practitioners, including those working in museums and at memorial sites.
