Search & Research, Lectures and Papers 15: Laying the Foundations for Holocaust Research – The Impact of Philip Friedman

From the end of WWII to the late 1950s, the most prominent Holocaust historian was Philip Friedman (1901, Lwów – 1960, NYC). His extensive publications set the methodology of Holocaust research, continuing the brilliant traditions of Polish Jewish historiography.
