The survivors' decision to engage and disquiet a public audience occurred against the backdrop of the Frankfurt Auschwitz trial and the West German debate over the enforcement of statutory limitations for prosecuting former Nazis. Dennis B. Klein focuses on the accounts of three survivors: Jean Ame?ry, an Austrian ex-patriot who joined the Belgian Resistance during the war, Vladimir Janke?le?vitch, a member of the French Resistance, and Simon Wiesenthal, who dedicated his life after the war to investigating Nazi crimes. As Klein argues, their accounts, in addition to acting as a reminder of Nazi-era endemic criminality, express a longing for human fellowship. This contextual and interdisciplinary interpretation illustrates the explanatory significance of contemporary events and individual responses to them in shaping the memory and legacy of Nazi-era destruction. 410 0$aModern history of politics and violence. 606 $aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)$xHistoriography 606 $aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aEuropean history$2bicssc 615 0$aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)$xHistoriography. 615 0$aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 7$aEuropean history 676 $a940.53/180922 700 $aKlein$b Dennis B.$0550049 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bCaBNVSL 801 2$bCaBNVSL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818304003321 996 $aSurvivor transitional narratives of Nazi-era destruction$94096354 997 $aUNINA
