Abstract

Die Studie befasst sich mit der Rezeption der Romane Hilsenraths. Die Lesarten, die Feuilleton, Literaturwissenschaft und nicht-öffentliche Stellungnahmen zutage förderten, werden dokumentiert. Basierend auf neueren Erkenntnissen der Rezeptionsforschung und Konzepten der pragmatischen Texttheorie werden die vorliegenden Dokumente als "Texte-in-Funktion" verstanden. Das Erkenntnisinteresse ist geleitet von der Frage nach der Rolle der Literaturkritik im Fall Hilsenrath. Welche thematischen und stilistischen Festlegungen sind zu verzeichnen, wie gestaltet die Literaturkritik das Autorimage mit? Nicht zuletzt stellt sich die Frage nach der politisch-gesellschaftlichen Dimension, die diese Rezeptionsgeschichte bestimmt. Zentrale Themen wie die Darstellung von Grauen in Verbindung mit grotesken Mitteln, jüdische Figuren in der Literatur nach der Shoa sowie Shoa und Sexualität greifen ineinander und führen zu der bereits von Adorno aufgeworfenen Frage, ob eine angemessene literarische Darstellung des Grauens nach der Shoa möglich sei. Entsprechend kontrovers wird Hilsenraths Werk rezipiert. Leistet der Autor ein Stück Erinnerungsarbeit gegen das Vergessen oder ist er ein Tabubrecher, der die Opfer durch seine Art der Darstellung entwürdigt?

Abstract

Debates on the Holocaust is the first attempt to survey the development of Holocaust historiography for a generation. It analyses the development of history writing on the destruction of the European Jews from just before the end of the Second World War to the present day, and argues forcefully that history writing is as much about the present as it is the past. The book guides the reader through the major debates in Holocaust historiography and shows how all of these controversies are as much products of their own time as they are attempts to uncover the past.Debates on the Holocaust will

Abstract

This is the first musicological study entirely devoted to a comprehensive analysis of musical Holocaust representations in the western art music tradition. Through a series of chronological case studies grounded in primary source analysis, Amy Lynn Wlodarski analyses the compositional processes and conceptual frameworks that provide key pieces with their unique representational structures and critical receptions. The study examines works composed in a variety of musical languages - from Arnold Schoenberg's dodecaphonic A Survivor from Warsaw to Steve Reich's minimalist Different Trains - and situates them within interdisciplinary discussions about the aesthetics and ethics of artistic witness. At the heart of this book are important questions about how music interacts with language and history; memory and trauma; politics and mourning. Wlodarski's detailed musical and cultural analyses provide new models for the assessment of the genre, illustrating the benefits and consequences of musical Holocaust representation in the second half of the twentieth century.

Abstract

"What do we learn about death from the Holocaust and how does it impact our responses to mortality today? Facing Death: Confronting Mortality in the Holocaust and Ourselves brings together the work of eleven Holocaust and genocide scholars who address these difficult questions, convinced of the urgency of further reflection on the Holocaust as the last survivors pass away. The volume is distinctive in its dialogical and introspective approach, where the contributors position themselves to confront their own impending death while listening to the voices of victims and learning from their intimate experiences. Broken in to three parts, this collection engages with these voices in a way that is not only scholarly, but deeply personal. The first part of the book engages with Holocaust testimony by drawing on the writings of survivors and witnesses such as Elie Wiesel, Jean Amery, and Charlotte Delbo, including rare accounts from members of the Sonderkommando. Reflections of post-Holocaust generations--the children and grandchildren of survivors--are housed in the second part, addressing questions of remembrance and memorialization. The concluding essays offer intimate self-reflection about how engagement with the Holocaust impacts the contributors' personal lives, faiths, and ethics. In an age of continuing atrocities, this volume provides careful attention to the affective dimension of coping with death, in particular, how loss and grief are deferred or denied, narrated and passed along"--

Abstract

This book offers the first detailed examination of the law's response to the crimes of the Holocaust. In offers a fascinating study of five exemplary proceedings-the Nuremberg trial of the major Nazi war criminals, the Israeli trials of Adolf Eichmann and John Demjanjuk, the French trial of Klaus Barbie, and the Canadian trial of Holocaust denier Ernst Zundel. These trials, the book argues, were 'show trials' in the broadest sense: they aimed to do justice both to the defendants and to the history and memory of the Holocaust. Douglas explores how prosecutors and jurors struggled to submit unprecedented crimes to legal judgment, and in so doing, to reconcile the interests of justice and pedagogy. Against the attacks of such critics as Hannah Arendt, Douglas defends the Nuremberg and Eichmann trials as imaginative, if flawed, responses to extreme crimes. By contrast, he shows how the Demjanjuk and Zundel trials turned into disasters of didactic legality, obfuscating the very history they were intended to illuminate. In their successes and shortcomings, Douglas contends, these proceedings changed our understandings of both the Holocaust and the legal process-revealing the value and limits of the criminal trial as a didactic tool.

Abstract

Band 1 dokumentiert die Judenverfolgung zwischen 1933 und 1937. Die chronologisch angeordneten Schriftzeugnisse lassen sichtbar werden, wie die Entrechtung und soziale Isolation der Juden in Deutschland vorangetrieben wurde, welche Rolle der Terror, das staatliche Kalkül und die Gleichgültigkeit sehr vieler Deutscher spielten. Nach kurzer Zeit war ein Zustand erreicht, wie ihn der Berliner Rabbiner Joachim Prinz 1935 beschrieb: "Des Juden Los ist: nachbarlos zu sein. Wir würden das alles nicht so schmerzlich empfinden, hätten wir nicht das Gefühl, dass wir einmal Nachbarn besessen haben." Auf der Basis der Edition realisiert der Bayerische Rundfunk die dokumentarische Höredition "Die Quellen sprechen", die in Staffeln gesendet wird und unter www.die-quellen-sprechen.de nachzuhören ist.
