A historical investigation of children's memory of the Holocaust in
Greece illustrates that age, generation and geographical background
shaped postwar Jewish identities. The examination of children's
narratives deposited in the era of digital archives enables an
understanding of the age-specific construction of the memory of
genocide, which shakes established assumptions about the memory of
the Holocaust. In the context of a global Holocaust memory
established through testimony archives, the present research
constructs a genealogy of the testimonial culture in Greece by
framing the rich source of written and oral testimonies in the
political discourses and public memory of the aftermath of the
Second World War. The testimonies of former hidden children and
child survivors of concentration camps illuminate the questions
that haunted postwar attempts to reconstruct communities, related
to the specific evolution of genocide in Greece and to the rising
anti-Semitism of postwar Greece. As an oral history of child
survivors of the Holocaust, the book will be of interest to
researchers in the fields of the history of childhood, Jewish
studies, memory studies and Holocaust and genocide studies.
