Omschrijving
Studying the diary as a genre, this book examines Jewish diary entries written in Occupied France.
"Employing solid research, excellent analytical skills, and postmodernist critical theory, Anne Freadman arrives at interesting and thought provoking conclusions with respect to the identity formation reached by French Jews, who faced crushing burdens during the Holocaust, in Vichy France, and through the expanded German occupation of their beloved country in 1942. Holding On and Holding Out makes a significant contribution to sociology, history, and applied critical theory."
"Deftly weaving extensive diary excerpts, Holding On and Holding Out is a gripping read. Freadman’s approach of using pieces of the diaries to illuminate reactions to ruptures in time and self is a successful one, while it also adds an appealing literary twist to the rich corpus of works on the Holocaust and on Second World War France."
“Her book is engrossing, emotional, and enlightening.”
Anne Freadman is Honorary Principal Professorial Fellow in the School of Languages and Linguistics at the University of Melbourne.
