Primo Levi, Holocaust survivor and renowned memorist, is one of the
most widely read writers of post-World War II Italy. his works are
characterised by the lean, dispassionate eloquence with which he
approaches his experience of incarceration of in Auschwitz. His
memoirs - as well as his poetry and fiction and his many interviews
- are often taught in several field, including Jewish studies and
Holocaust studies, comparative literature, and Italian literature
and language, and can enrich the study of history, psychology, and
philosophy. The first part of this volume provides instructors with
an overview of the available editions, anthologies, and
translations of Levi's work and identifies other useful classroom
aids, such as films, music, and online resources. In the second
part, contributors describe different approaches to teaching Levi's
work.
