[ha-Safran] Early Holocaust Testimonies of Child Survivors

2016-10-10 Thread Celestina Levant 

Hello,
We would like to introduce a new title published by The Hebrew University 
Magnes Press:
Was their Voice heard?
Early Holocaust Testimonies of Child Survivors
Edited by: Boaz 
Cohen

This book is an edited collection of papers, in Hebrew, addressing the unique 
phenomenon of the collection of testimonies from child survivors of the 
Holocaust while they were still children or teenagers in the immediate 
aftermath of the Holocaust. The instructions for these interviews go as far 
back as 1945. The book maps the collecting, publication and filming of 
testimonies and addresses issues of authenticity, methodology dissemination and 
reception.
Who interviewed the children and how? What is the correct way to read these 
interviews and what can be studied from them? Do the existing interviews 
faithfully reflect the children's experiences and feelings? What was the 
cultural and social background of these interviews and their publication?

These testimonies teach the strategies Jewish families used to save themselves 
and especially the children: not passively like 'sheep to the slaughter' but 
coping with changing situations by struggling . The testimonies also teach us 
about the relationship between Jews and gentiles; rescue and sacrifice on the 
part of non-Jews on the one hand, and the persecution and murder on the other.

Some of the papers are adapted translation of papers published in English and 
some were written for this volume by historians, linguists and literati. 
Included is also contemporary material from the period.

Participating researchers: Boaz Cohen, Joanna Michlic, Gabriel Finder, Beate 
Muller, Rita Horvath, Zuzanna Schnepf-Kolacz, Sharon Geva, Emunah 
Nachmani-Gafni and Yvonne Kozlovski-Golan

Dr. Boaz Cohen, a historian, is head of the Holocaust Studies program of the 
Western Galilee College in Akko and a lecturer at the Shaanan College in Haifa, 
Israel. His work focuses on the development of Holocaust memory and 
historiography in their social and cultural context and on Jewish and Israeli 
post-Holocaust society. His current research is on early Holocaust 
historiography, Holocaust testimonies and early children's Holocaust 
testimonies and the adult interest in them.
 Dr. Cohen is the convener and organizer of several Holocaust Studies 
conferences in the Western Galilee College including the international 
conference series "The Future of Holocaust Testimonies“.
