• “Before we can move forward, we must come to some kind of terms with 1945, with
what it represents. A start would be the recognition that 1945, with its devastation,
displacement, and horror, was the result not just of a few madmen and their befuddled
followers, not just of ‘others,” but of humanity as a whole and of out culture as a
whole” (Eksteins, 13).

“our historical sense is derived in turn from two directions: from the buildup that were the events of the pre-1945 past, with its inherent notions of
agency and cause, and from the confusions of our own end-of-century, end-of-millennium present, with its immediacy and contradiction” (Eksteins, x).
