The monuments in this section aim at expressing what their creators regarded as the higher-ranking, universal essence of the Wallenberg story that made it worth telling to future generations. Frequently, these monuments are based on the understanding of Wallenberg as a representative of humanitarian ideals.] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[In the following section of this study, we will investigate the monuments that refer to Wallenberg in a more general sense than did the previous examples, which focused on Wallenberg’s deed or fate. The monuments in this section aim at expressing what their creators regarded as the higher-ranking, universal essence of the Wallenberg story that made it worth telling to future generations. Frequently, these monuments are based on the understanding of Wallenberg as a representative of humanitarian ideals.]
