Drawing extensively on the works of Victor Klemperer, Ruth Kluger, Michal Glowinski, Primo Levi, Imre Kertesz and Bela Zsolt, this books conveys, with vivid detail, the persecution of the Jews from the beginning of the Third Reich until its very end. It gives us a sense both of what the Holocaust meant to the wider community swept up in the horrors and what it was like for the individual to weather one of the most shocking events in history. Survivors and witnesses disappear, and history, not memory, becomes the instrument for recalling the past. Judith M. Hughes secures a place for narratives by those who experienced the Holocaust in person. This compelling text is a vital read for all students of the Holocaust and Holocaust memory."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 505 0 "Everything I considered unGerman ... flourishes here": Victor Klemperer -- "How completely homeless I am" -- "Murder is ... at our heels" -- Coda -- Childhoods, disrupted: Ruth Kluger and Michal Glowinski -- "Timescapes" -- "Flashes of memory" -- "Hier ist kein warum" (There Is no why here): Primo Levi -- "The demolition of a man" -- January 1945 -- Henri testifies -- Coda -- "Naturally": Imre Kertész -- "I ought to have been learning ... about Auschwitz" -- "I would like to live a little longer" -- Coda -- An escape story: Béla Zsolt -- Missed opportunity (1) -- Missed opportunity (2) -- In the ghetto -- The Kasztner train -- Conclusion. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 650 0 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) |vPersonal narratives. 650 0 Holocaust survivors. 650 0 Jewish authors. 650 7 Historiography. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00958221 650 7 Holocaust survivors. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00958838 650 7 Jewish authors. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00982665 647 7 Jewish Holocaust |d(1939-1945) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00958866 648 7 1939-1945 |2fast 655 7 Personal narratives. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423843 650 7 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) |vPersonal narratives. |2nli 650 7 Holocaust survivors. |2nli 650 7 Jewish authors. |2nli 650 7 Shoah |xRécits personnels. |2ram |0(FrPBN)11998355 650 7 Shoah |xDans la littérature. |2ram |0(FrPBN)11941579 |0(FrPBN)11996647 650 7 Survivants de la Shoah |xBiographies. |2ram |0(FrPBN)11998349 |0(FrPBN)11935764 655 7 Personal narratives. |2lcgft 776 08 |iebook version : |z9781350058606 830 0 Perspectives on the Holocaust. 856 41 |uhttps://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/ushmm/detail.action?docID=5389338 |zHosted by ProQuest |3Electronic version(s) available. 852 0 |bscstacks |hD804.195 |i.H85 2018 852 |bebook
