It illuminates ways in which their early lives conditioned both their political engagements during wartime and their extraordinary literary creations empowered by what Lara R. Curtis refers to as modes of 'writing resistance.' With skillful recourse to a remarkable variety of genres, they offer compelling autobiographical reflections, vivid chronicles of wartime atrocities, eyewitness accounts of victims, and acute perspectives on the political implications of major events. Their sensitive reflections of gendered subjectivity authenticate the myriad voices and visions they capture. In sum, this book highlights the lives and works of three courageous women who were ceaselessly committed to a noble cause during the Holocaust and World War II.Judaism and cultureWorld War, 1939-1945FeminismFeminist theorySexPhenomenologyLiterature, Modern20th centuryJewish Cultural StudiesHistory of World War II and the HolocaustFeminism and Feminist TheoryGender StudiesPhenomenologyTwentieth-Century LiteratureJudaism and culture.World War, 1939-1945.Feminism.Feminist theory.Sex.Phenomenology.Literature, ModernJewish Cultural Studies.History of World War II and the Holocaust.Feminism and Feminist Theory.Gender Studies.Phenomenology.Twentieth-Century Literature.940.53174386809.93358Curtis Lara Rauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut933797MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910349538203321Writing Resistance and the Question of Gender2102278UNINA
