Beschreibung:
In light of current debates about the construction and formation of female identities, this article raises questions about the continued dearth of critical writing on the significance of gender difference for both the remembrance and representation of the holocaust. Focusing on the relationship between structures of memory and the portrayal of female bodies, the author analyzes Mali Fritz's account of her experiences as a survivor of Auschwitz-Birkenau, "Essig gegen den Durst", and Marie Nurowska's novel "Postscriptum für Anna und Miriam". She argues that both works undermine the public memory of their respective social context by writing against universalized images of suffering.
