This open access book focuses on the relationship between historical events, artistic expressions, and cultural memory to investigate to what extent such an approach can act as a corrective to previous conclusions about different cultures of Holocaust remembrance. The chapters in this contributed volume all engage with one or more of the following questions: How has the cultural representation and medialization of Holocaust memories changed over time and what similarities, differences, and connections exist between the art forms in the different Nordic countries? How can the artistic representation and medialization of Holocaust memories be understood from a broader memory culture perspective? How does it align (or not) with previous research results that point to silence, breaking points, nationalization, Europeanization, Americanization, and globalization of the Holocaust's public memories? What function do the analysed artistic expressions play in the understanding of the Holocaust and the construction of the different memory cultures, and what role have institutions and individual agents played in these processes in and between the Nordic countries?
