So that silence does not become the rudder: Izkor Bijer or Holocaust memorial books
Main Article Content
Abstract
This essay is an analysis of a sample of memorial books of Jewish survivorsfrom the Nazi Holocaust during World War II. With their persisting appearancethey have perpetuated the memory of the historical trauma of the group.The persistence of the texts is suggestive. From the cumulative analysis ofthis literature, we get narratives that re-focus on the ethical-philosophicalperspectives that the political world lost. These historical sources are innovative in their contribution as material from which to build what is todaydesignated as the “cultural restitution” of and for the victimized group.
