The book contains eight gripping personal stories that reveal the emotional impact of looting as part of a process of dehumanization and the way in which this injustice continues to resonate in subsequent generations. Throughout the book we are confronted with blank frames--symbolic of the looted belongings--with the frame's contents revealed later to evoke a feeling of emptiness and loss. By centering the personal stories of the original Jewish owners and their descendents, the volume makes clear that returning Jewish cultural property is still relevant today, and a form of redress. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Julie-Marthe Cohen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Nai010 Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/03\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 6.00w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789462088580","brand":"Nai010 Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43255978295433,"sku":"9789462088580","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_f3eed5aa-423f-4ae0-b5f3-730a64d70fe6.jpg?v=1736233963","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/dispossessed-personal-stories-of-nazi-looted-jewish-cultural-property-and-postwar-restitution-9789462088580","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
