Hi, Has a sympathetic writer done any research on the issue of inaccuracies in Holocaust accounts/testimony? Of what I have seen of Holocaust literature, I think Finklestein comes closest to date (not just his criticism of the "Holocaust industry," but also some individual accounts). Given that tremendous trauma and physiological deprivation (starvation, malnutrition, dehydration, sleep deprivation) can cause problems in thinking, perception, memory, etc., one could suppose that the testimonies of some Holocaust survirvors may be inaccurate in part through admission or exaggeration. Given the sensitivities regarding the issue of Holocaust and the ever constant threat of Holocaust deniers, will the Holocaust community ever be open to a more critical appraisal of individual Holocaust accounts? It seems by and large that Holocaust historians generally accept individual Holocaust accounts at face value. Any help will be apprecited. I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
