Historical fiction is a unique way for students to engage emotionally and intellectually with the Holocaust. Graphic novels like MAUS, works of young adult fiction like The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, and films such as The Pianist, Schindler’s List and Life is Beautiful provide the opportunity for audiences to consider how history is conveyed and how it informs popular culture. This interactive session will explore the issues of historical accuracy and authorship.
