About this book deutschenglish

Remembrance culture is strongly influenced by the cinematic representation of holocaust survivors. Assignments suggest to students that body language conveys special messages here. But before it could even be shown what potential dealing with bodies has for remembrance, any interest in the corporeality of witnesses was already heavily criticized. This thesis is focused on bodies and movements of Holocaust Survivors from the perspective of dance studies. It shows that and how the Holocaust can be thought today in the context of corporeality.
