Talk:reperpetrate

The term is useful in current discussion regarding the Holocaust. With the subject becoming part of a universalist "spin" that teaches morality, there is also a tendency by writers, artists and scholars to extrapolate narratives. This, in turn, may prove injurious or insulting to victims, survivors, and descendants, as well as to historiography. The end result is a reperpetration of original trauma. This terminology was introduced by Dr. Gabriel Mayer, as tool for critique.
 * That doesn't seem to be anything new as far as the dictionary entry is concerned, but it does mention your name- no false modesty here, I gather. Chuck Entz (talk) 20:37, 29 November 2014 (UTC)
