Abstract
This essay analyses the relationship between Dominick LaCapra and the 'historians'--primarily historians of the Holocaust--in order to understand why his approach inspires hostility or worse, negligence of the insights into the history of traumatic events his work provides. It seeks therefore to understand not only how LaCapra's work is 'history' rather than simply 'historiographical criticism', but also how it sheds light on how 'history' defines its own disciplinary parameters.
