Reviews
"This is a collection of essays written in the 1980s in response to those who deny the reality of the Holocaust. The writer, a scholar of ancient Greece who teaches at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Science Sociales in Paris, is torn by the dilemma of how to provide a necessary critique of academics who reject the genocide of European Jewry without at the same time dignifying them as a possibly legitimate "revisionist" school of intellectual thought. Vidal-Naquet writes persuasively and often passionately in response to Robert Faurisson, a French professor of literature, whose arguments have appeared in Le Monde and other outlets for French intellectuals, and also takes to task American linguist Noam Chomsky, who wrote a preface to one of Faurisson's books. Vidal-Naquet offers an interesting perspective on a debate that should not have taken place. For informed readers." -- Library Journal, In these essays the eminent French classicist Pierre Vidal-Naquet engages the issues raised by the denial of the Holocaust with an extraordinary fusion of moral passion and historical vigor., This is a collection of essays written in the 1980s in response to those who deny the reality of the Holocaust.

Synopsis
Assassins of Memory is a passionate and painstaking look at one of the more curious realities of recent French cultural life: the prominence accorded to the phenomenon of revisionism. An attempt on the part of a tiny group of fanatics, often masquerading as scholars and researchers, to deny the existence of the gas chambers and horrors of Hitler's genocidal policies, revisionism is quietly gaining adherents.

    I love the 1959 record which was packed carefully in between two pieces of corrugated cardboard. I got it safely after it was shipped securely in a sturdy box labelled "Fragile" in block letters. The item is as described per the seller's words and clear photos. The previous owner kept the LP lovingly, in its original shrink-wrap and paper sleeve. The LP is of value to me as it plays well, sounding great, especially Randy Sparks' "Bright Moon, Bright Star". The seller is excellent! A⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!
