Sommario/riassunto |
|
Gendered Testimonies of the Holocaust: Writing Life considers the gendered dimension of the phenomenon of writing as a means of speaking to or for others and for oneself in life-affirming identity. Rather than reading testimony as an internalization of death, this book demonstrates that testimony involves transformation of muteness into written life. |
