His voice is among the most important to emerge from this dark chapter in human history. In Primo Levi and the Identity of a Survivor, Nancy Harrowitz examines the complex role that Levi's Jewish identity played in his choices of how to portray his survival, as well as in his exposition of topics such as bystander complicity. Her analysis uncovers a survivor's shame that deeply influenced the personas he created to recount his experiences. Exploring a range of Levi's works, including Survival at Auschwitz and lesser-known works of fiction and poetry, she illustrates key issues within his development as a writer. At the heart of Levi's discourse, Harrowitz argues, lies a complex interplay of narrative modes that reveals his brilliance as a theorist of testimony."--$cEBSCOhost. 330 $aIn Primo Levi and the Identity of a Survivor, Nancy Harrowitz examines the complex role that Levi's cultural identity played in his choices of how to portray his survival, as well as his exposition of topics such as bystander complicity. 606 $aAutobiography 606 $aHolocaust survivors in literature 606 $aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in literature 606 $aJews$xIdentity 606 $3(DE-601)104682590$3(DE-588)4073091-8$aJudenvernichtung$2gnd 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / European / Italian$2bisacsh 615 0$aAutobiography. 615 0$aHolocaust survivors in literature. 615 0$aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in literature. 615 0$aJews$xIdentity. 615 7$aJudenvernichtung 615 7$aLITERARY CRITICISM / European / Italian. 676 $a853.914 686 $aIV 31881$2rvk 700 $aHarrowitz$b Nancy A$g(Nancy Anne),$f1952-$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut.$01612809 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822805303321 996 $aPrimo Levi and the Identity of a Survivor$93941789 997 $aUNINA
