Beyond the Memory: the Era of Witnessing – Analyzing Processes of Knowledge Production and Memorialization of the Holocaust through the Concepts of Translocal Assemblage and Witness Creation by Myriam Bettina Gerber B.A., University of Victoria, 2008 Supervisory Committee Dr. Alexandrine Boudreault-Fournier, Supervisor (Department of Anthropology) Dr. Charlotte Schallie, Co-Supervisor (Department of Germanic Studies) i | P a g e Supervisory Committee Dr. Alexandrine Boudreault-Fournier, Supervisor (Department of Anthropology) Dr. Charlotte Schallie, Co-Supervisor (Department of Germanic Studies) Abstract This paper considers the symbiotic relationship between iconic visual representations of the Holocaust – specifically film and Holocaust sites – and processes of Holocaust memorialization. In conjunction, specific sites and objects related to the Holocaust have become icons. I suggest that specific Holocaust sites as well as Holocaust films can be perceived as elements of one and/or multiple translocal assemblage/s. My focus in this analysis is on the role of knowledge production and witness creation in Holocaust memorialization. It is not my intention to diminish the role of Holocaust memorialization; rather, I seek to look beyond representational aspects, and consider the processual relationships involved in the commemoration of the Holocaust in institutions, such as memorial sites and museums, as well as through elements of popular culture, such as films.

  • Reconsidering Post-War Narratives of Involvement in Nazi Violence
    Reconsidering Post-war Narratives of Involvement in Nazi Violence By Stefanie Rauch Abstract: While the testimonies of survivors have come to occupy an important place in the scholarship on National Socialism and the Holocaust, and their post-war reverberations, the lesser-known corpus of recordings of perpetrators in a narrow judicial sense and the wider non-persecuted German and Austrian populace continues to be under-researched and under-theorised. In this article, I will consider approaches to utilising these complex sources in light of narrative interviews with individuals who witnessed, became complicit in, facilitated, or benefitted from National Socialist violence. Drawing on a collection of recent interviews by a documentary filmmaker, I will demonstrate the importance of the context of their co-production and their socio-political and cultural embeddedness. I will develop an approach that goes beyond the divide between event and meaning- focussed uses of such sources, instead analysing them as cultural artefacts of a particular time and place. In doing so, I will identify a rise in anxiety in approaching Germans and Austrians on the side of persecutors and the appropriation of the figure of the contemporary witness or Zeitzeuge as practice, performance, discursive strategy, and subject position. Author Details: Dr Stefanie Rauch is a Research Associate at UCL’s Institute of Advanced Studies as part of the AHRC-funded, collaborative project Compromised Identities? Reflections on Perpetration and Complicity under Nazism. She is interested in questions of knowledge production, agency, representation, and identity. Her current research explores how non-persecuted Germans and Austrians negotiated having stood on the “wrong side of history,” once the moral and normative parameters shifted after 1945.

  • TREBLINKA 1943 ‘We Stonden Op, Opgewonden, Vol Verwachting
    MICHAL W ‘We stonden op, opgewonden, vol verwachting. Duizenden gedachten schoten door onze hoofden,’ schreef Samuel Willenberg. Hij en zijn kameraden sprongen van hun brits, zich ervan bewust dat dit de laatste dag in de hel was. Niemand kwam levend uit vernietigingskamp Treblinka. Er werden zo veel mensen omgebracht dat er niet genoeg land was om iedereen te begraven. In iets meer dan een jaar tijd werden er 900.000 mensen vermoord. En al waren ze uitgehongerd en ontdaan van hun waardigheid, toch durfde een groep gevangenen in opstand te komen. Op 2 augustus 1943 vond een Ó succesvolle gewapende opstand plaats in het vernietigingskamp, die groter en spectaculairder was dan die in Sobibór. JCIK Hoe slaagden de gevangenen erin de bewakers aan te vallen, hun wapens over te nemen en te ontsnappen? Kregen ze hulp van binnenuit? Michał Wójcik schreef op basis van ooggetuigenverslagen een boeiende reconstructie van deze weinig bekende rebellie. Het is een verhaal over bui- tengewone moed, geloof en hoop, dat laat zien dat zelfs in de grootste hel TREBLINKA 1943 een wonder kan gebeuren. Michał Wójcik is historicus en journalist. Hij werkt voor radio, televisie en tijdschriften. In Polen is Treblinka 1943 een grote bestseller en won het de TREBLINKA Newsweek Award voor het beste boek van het jaar.

  • An Open Letter to Holocaust Denier David Irving Congratulations. Your Life Mission to Denounce the Systematic Genocide of Six Mi
    An Open Letter to Holocaust Denier David Irving Congratulations. Your life mission to denounce the systematic genocide of six million Jews by the Nazi Regime during World War II grows easier as time slowly creeps by. With many survivors gone and memories faded, the threat of the self-proclaimed “historical revisionist”— who declares the Holocaust an event fabricated by the Jews in order to gain sympathy and dollars— seems to grow stronger each day. However, Mr. Irving, I write to you today as a proud member of the third generation of Jews after the tragedies of the Holocaust, and I assure you that no matter how far removed we may become from the physical events of World War II, the horrors that took place will never be forgotten or undermined. In one of your famous speeches, you incredulously wonder: “How is it possible to gas millions of people in gas chambers and yet leave no significant residue of the poison gas used in the fabric of that gas chamber?” Yet, I too wonder: How can you dismiss the documented photographs and footage of thousands of Jewish lives reduced to piles of decaying bodies? How can you deny the testimony of World War II Nazi soldier Franz Suchomel, who confessed to witnessing the gassing as Jewish men, women and children crumbled lifelessly out of the chambers “like potatoes”? Mr. Irving, people of all races and religions perished in World War II. From military soldiers to victims of the Pearl Harbor bombing, the mid-1900s saw dreams crushed and families broken. The Jewish population decrease during this time, however, was unprecedented in its systematic and scientific nature.

  • Stanley Milgram's Obedience to Authority Experiments
    Stanley Milgram’s Obedience to Authority Experiments: Towards an Understanding of their Relevance in Explaining Aspects of the Nazi Holocaust By Nestar John Charles Russell A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Public Policy. Victoria University of Wellington 2009 Although the most common interpretation of Milgram’s findings is that participants did not wish to harm the learner, the motives generated in this paradigm may well have been more mixed or ambivalent in many participants. Unfortunately, the manner in which people actually regard the act of punishing others when they make mistakes . has been virtually ignored in discussions of the obedience research. However . harming is a widely accepted form of child discipline . Most people are hardly unequivocally opposed to the use of physical punishment under absolutely any circumstances. That a majority approve the use of capital punishment in this country [the United States] might serve as another illustration —Miller (2004, pp. 198-199). if humanity can survive the violence of our age, [our descendants] might consider us as late barbarians —Elias (1991, pp. 146-147). ii Abstract Two leading Holocaust historians, Yehuda Bauer and Christopher Browning, have in recent years independently asked how so many ordinary Germans (most of whom in the 1930s had been moderately anti-Semitic) could become by the early 1940s willing murderers of Jews. Social psychologist, Stanley Milgram, had years before been interested in finding answers to similar questions, and to that end in the early 1960s carried out his widely debated “Obedience to Authority” (OTA) experiments at Yale University.

La celoj de la rakonto estas sentigi ĉe la legantoj maksimumajn hororon, naŭzon kaj abomenon kaj eviti la ignoradon de la judeco kaj la prisilentadon de la holokaŭsto fare de la Esperanto-historiografio (Atenton: la teksto ne taŭgas por infanoj kaj homoj kun malfortaj nervoj) Enkonduko: „Solvo de la juda demando“ kaj „Operaco Reinhard(t)“ Kiel konate, la 30an de januaro 1939 en la germana Regna parlamento (nomata Reiĥtago) kanceliero Adolf Hitler elpuŝis la minacon, ke „la juda raso en Eŭropo estos detruita, se la internacia financjudaro en kaj ekster Eŭropo sukcesos ankoraŭfoje ĵeti la popolojn en militon“. La nazioj komprenis tiun minacon kiel ordonon por persekuti kaj elimini la judojn de Eŭropo. Intertempe, tio jam okazis en Germanio, Aŭstrio kaj Ĉeĥoslovakio. La milito kontraŭ Pollando komenciĝis la 1an de septembro 1939, kaj la 24an de junio 1941 la germana armeo atakis Sovetunion. En ĉiuj kazoj inter la unuaj celoj de la persekuto kaj detruo estis la judoj, kaj komunistoj. La 31an de julio 1941 Hermann Göring taskis la estron de RSHA, Reinhard Heydrich, ellabori „ĝeneralan projekton“ rilate al „kostoj, organizado kaj realigado de la fina solvo de la juda demando“.
