Abstract:
Michał Borwicz was a Polish poet, prose writer, and a publicist of Jewish origins. During the Nazi occupation he was resettled to the Lvov getto, and in the years 1942–1943 he was imprisoned in the Janowska concentration camp. He managed to escape and next he was active in the resistance movement. After the war as a director of the Jewish Historical Commission in Kraków he tried to collect and publish testimonies of the Holocaust survivors. In 1947 he decided to emigrate to France. In 1953 Borwicz defended his doctoral dissertation at the Sorbonne. The dissertation was published the same year.

Abstract:
The literary output of the Polish-Yiddish writers who survived WWII in the Soviet Union is mostly a literary mirror of the times of exile and wartime wandering. The two major themes that reverberate through these writings are: the refugees’ reflection on their stay in the USSR, and the Holocaust of Polish Jews. After the war, some of them described that period in their memoirs and autobiographical fiction, however, due to censorship, such accounts could only be published abroad, following the authors’ emigration from Poland. These writings significantly complement the texts produced during the

Abstract:
Literature is one of the most effective ways for representing traumatic memory since it accomplishes this task by means of imagery. In American literary studies, the extensive research of the Holocaust literature tended to deploy the prevalent model focusing on the tragic fate of European Jewry through the prism of the victims’ psychology. The survivors of the unspeakable experience are striving to express (or repress) it from the perspective of their new American reality. Based on fiction and drama of the late 20th — early 21st centuries, the paper seeks to present an alternative mode of addr

Abstract Family and kinship carry special significance to Holocaust survivors and their descendants.

Abstract:
Trauma is a central concept in the historiography of the Holocaust. In both the historiographical and the psychoanalytical research on the subject, the Holocaust is perceived not as a finite event that took place in the past, but as one that continues to exist and to affect the families of survivors and the Jewish people. In the 1950s–1960s, evidence began emerging that Holocaust trauma was not limited to the survivors themselves, but was passed on to the next generation born after the Holocaust and raised in its shadow. It is possible to see the effects of growing up in the shadow of the Holo

Abstract:
Viktor Frankl has written that people can survive in the most adverse of situations. He emphasized that the will to meaning has actual survival value. Frankl said people who were oriented toward the future or who had loved ones to see again were most likely to have survived the Holocaust. But is this belief valid? Does love have survival value? Six survivors of the Holocaust were interviewed to assess whether they experienced thoughts and feelings as those described by Frankl. Analysis of results from these interviews showed that love was important but so were other factors.

This thesis examines how the First World War and the Holocaust fit into Western history and literary history by. It takes as its point of departure two arguments that currently enjoy, the favor of many specialists. First, it critiques the idea that the literature of the First World War is firmly embedded in the Western literary heritage while that of the Holocaust lies outside the realm of expression, a position that Jay Winter has taken a leading role in developing. Second, it challenges the notion that the Holocaust is an occurrence in history to which no other event offers parallels. The st

Abstract:
AbstractThe Swedish journalist and author Margit Silberstein’s autobiographical memoir, Förintelsens Barn (2021), represents her post-war upbringing in a survivor family. Both parents were Hungarian-speaking Jews from Transylvania, who were the only members of their respective families to survive horrendous persecution and conditions during the war. After the war they immigrated to a small town in Sweden, where Margit and her brother were born. This chapter examines the tensions in Silberstein’s account of her childhood and her relations with her parents, particularly her mother, viewing these tensions as stemming from characteristics of and contradictions between later postmemorial writing and the im/migrant literature of Sweden today, both of which are conditioned by their social contexts, including those of antisemitism. Silberstein’s work brings Holocaust postmemoir into dialogue with im/migrant autobiography in contemporary Sweden, and it suggests that this dialogue will continue to the third generation, Silberstein’s children.

Abstract:
The authors studied intergenerational processing and search for meaning in families in which the Holocaust survivor wrote and published a memoir. Survivors’ writing of their traumatic narrative and the reading encounters of their children and grandchildren involve the search for meaning in passing on the family legacy. Survivor-writers and the second (child) and third (grandchild) generations in 12 Israeli families were interviewed. Qualitative analysis led to identification of two axes: family cohesion surrounding the traumatic narrative and familial communication about Holocaust experiences. Mapping the families along these two axes led to a three intergenerational family types: (1) high family cohesion and open communication, (2) low family cohesion and silence, and (3) partial cohesion and survivor–third generation open communication, with “knowing-not knowing” in the second generation. In the Israeli context, processing the tensions between the overt and covert legacies transmitted through the generations facilitates searching and creating integrated meaning for family members.

Abstract:
This chapter investigates recent writing on the Holocaust. Surveying the field of recent Holocaust literature after the fiftieth anniversary of the end of the Second World War leaves the impression that histories of the Final Solution are as subject to the academic trivialities as those in other fields. Just as Claude Lanzmann's Shoah stands head and shoulders above other filmmakers' efforts to document the Holocaust, collections of testimonies from survivors have a more lasting value than many of the recent histories. Some of the recent works are more devoted to current political questions, which will make them seem dated in only a few years. Meanwhile, others have made what seems to be a more lasting contribution to people's detailed knowledge of the Final Solution.

Abstract:
This chapter explores figural realism in witness literature in line with Primo Levi's Se questo è un uomo (If This Is a Man). Witness literature regarding the Holocaust typically offers itself as a contribution to our knowledge of that event, but actual witnesses of the Holocaust typically refer to the events as unbelievable or unspeakable. Levi forgoes any claim to the status of historian, but he does address the proper way for anyone, survivor or interested observer, to write about the Holocaust event. The chapter cites how Levi came to center on the question of the proper writing style for relating the experiences of the death camps clearly and objectively. It also mentions how Levi criticized Paul Celan for his obscure writing about the Holocaust experience.

Abstract The vast majority of oral historians and programs have thus far managed to avoid spending any time in court. The case of Society of Survivors of the Riga Ghetto, Inc. v. Huttenbach is a notable exception to this generalization.The litigation arose out of a contractual dispute between the leadership of the Society of Survivors of the Riga Ghetto and Dr. Henry R. Huttenbach, a professor of history at the City College of the City University of New York. During the late 1970s, the society began look king for a historian to write a history of the ghetto, which had been set up by the Nazis in the city of Riga, Latvia, during the period from 1941 to 1943. Since most of the material for such a work lay in the memories of survivors, the society wanted someone who would do the oral history interviews as well as the actual writing. They eventually chose Dr. Huttenbach, a recognized specialist in Holocaust stud- ies. In preparation for writing the history, he interviewed more than one hundred survivors and collected a small archive of written material and memorabilia.

Abstract:
This chapter reviews Arnost Lustig's Children of the Holocaust. Children of the Holocaust brings together two earlier collections of short stories, Night and Hope and Diamonds of the Night, as well as a novella, Darkness Casts no Shadow. As these titles indicate, Lustig thrusts his readers into a world of perpetual darkness with only the slightest glimmer of light. That dim flicker of hope resides in the survivor's memorial candle, for that alone puts an end to the Nazis' years of terror, brutality, and torture that run through every page of Lustig's writing. Each of Lustig's stories tears at the flesh of character and reader: his fiction provides the phenomenology for understanding the reality of the history of the Holocaust.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter shows how attempts at incorporating either pre- or post-war refugees into detective narratives often drew on stereotypes, even when the depiction of these individuals was intended to be broadly sympathetic. A comparison between Mitzi, the self-pitying refugee housekeeper in Agatha Christie’s A Murder Is Announced (1950), and Gerd, a refugee who is a model of forbearance and forgiveness in Ellis Peters’s Fallen into the Pit (1951), is instructive here. In many instances, past events in Nazi Germany are alluded to only in passing, with the name of a camp standing for the crimes committed there, and the crimes themselves not described in any detail. This device relates to the economy with which detective fiction generally tends to draw its protagonists, but it also implies that readers would be expected to have some sense of the events alluded to. These novels tend to centre on the closed communities that are typical of interwar detective fiction: the country house, as in G. D. H. and Margaret Cole’s Toper’s End (1942) and Cyril Hare’s An English Murder (1951); the school, in Gladys Mitchell’s Tom Brown’s Body (1949); and even the train compartment, as in Raymond Postgate’s Somebody at the Door (1943). The presence of refugees and survivors in these communities, and their entanglement with the social disturbance that is concomitant with a crime being committed, provides scope for assessing how new understandings of Britain and its relation to Europe were being broached in popular writing at this period.

Abstract This chapter analyzes the virtual memoryscapes that have been developed at the Bergen-Belsen memorial and in Second Life in the form of a digital exhibition on Kristallnacht. It argues that the iPad application at Bergen-Belsen is particularly successful in allowing visitors to experience palimpsestic testimony through the layers of digital photographs, eyewitness writing, and sound recordings as they wander through the empty space of the vast memorial site. The museum has also worked on digital films that introduce visitors to the memorial space by allowing them to traverse the camp virtually and engage with its overall design and history. The Kristallnacht exhibition in Second Life enables the user to explore a digital environment that includes a burning synagogue and survivor testimony. As with the films at Bergen-Belsen, this exhibition confronts the viewer with a discombobulating perspective in which the user shifts roles between bystander, victim, and perpetrator.
