Her analysis uncovers a survivor's shame that deeply influenced the personas he created to recount his experiences. Exploring a range of Levi's works, including Survival at Auschwitz and lesser-known works of fiction and poetry, she illustrates key issues within his development as a writer. At the heart of Levi's discourse, Harrowitz, argues lies a complex interplay of narrative modes that reveals his brilliance as a theorist of testimony."-- |cFrom publisher's website. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 600 10 Levi, Primo, |d1919-1987 |xCriticism and interpretation. 650 0 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in literature. 650 0 Holocaust survivors in literature. 650 0 Jews |xIdentity. 655 7 Autobiographies. |2lcgft 600 17 Levi, Primo |d1919-1987. |2gnd |0(DE-588)118572326 650 7 Judenvernichtung. |2gnd |0(DE-588)4073091-8 600 17 Levi, Primo. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00035777 650 7 Autobiography. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00822597 650 7 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) in literature. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00958923 650 7 Holocaust survivors in literature. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00958862 650 7 Jews |xIdentity. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00983278 600 16 Levi, Primo |xCritique et interprétation. 830 0 Toronto Italian studies. 852 0 |bstacks |hPQ4872.E8 |iZ685 2016 |tc. 1 852 0 |bscstacks |hPQ4872.E8 |iZ685 2016 |tc. 2
