Through narrative analysis of the memoirs of six holocaust
survivors from a single extended family, Trauma and Resilience in
Holocaust Memoir: Strategies of Self-Preservation and
Inter-Generational Encounter with Narrative examines strategies of
self-preservation of young people exposed to violence and
persecution at different ages and life stages. Through the lens of
studying resilience in child development, this book describes the
striking diversity of holocaust-era experiences and traces the arc
of a remarkable global diaspora. Birnbaum argues that stories from
the past can enhance understanding of the internal lives of today's
young refugees and survivors of violent conflict. Exploring the
socio-politics of narrative and memory, this book considers the
ways that children of holocaust survivors may honor the past while
also allowing a new generation to engage family history in a
conversation with contemporary concerns.
