Full textThis thesis aims to analyze how literature, faced with some extremely violent events and traumatic circumstances, can become a key to interpret and assimilate them. Unlike historiography, that reconstructs the events searching for evidence in written records, literary fiction deals with it through a critical reworking that integrates these events in the collective memory and thus helps to assimilate them. By this means a new social role for literature emerges in societies which have suffered traumatic situations as the violence exercised by the state during the Chilean dictatorship between 1973 and 1990. In Chile, after nearly 25 years from the return of democracy, we are observing a prolific period of literary, theatrical, visual and audiovisual representations that stage, discuss and reinterpret what happened. This research examines how the Chilean dictatorship is dealt with by four contemporary storytellers, Arturo Fontaine, Roberto Bolaño, Diamela Eltit y Germán Marín.

Full textLa pregunta sobre cómo se debe representar el Holocausto es y ha sido una cuestión problemática y esencial en los Estudios del Holocausto. Ciertos académicos e intelectuales han negado la posibilidad de representación del horror del genocidio de los judíos europeos, y en especial, se ha negado el uso de la ficción literaria y cinematográfica. Esta tesis analiza las tres etapas de recepción del Holocausto y sus discursos académicos predominantes. El inicial silencio e invisibilidad social del genocidio, en el que se formula el dictum adorniano sobre la irrepresentabilidad del genocidio de los judíos europeos. Más adelante, el Holocausto se hace socialmente visible, y la aparición de obras de ficción controvertidas obligan a plantearse ciertos “límites de representación”. Y contemporáneamente, cuando la ficción sobre Holocausto se ha popularizado y globalizado, llegando a formar parte del entretenimiento y del consumo mediático. En este contexto, en el que las representaciones de ficción del genocidio de los judíos europeos ya forman parte de nuestra cultura, el caso de estudio se centra en el análisis narratológico del libro Everything is Illuminated (2002) de Jonathan Safran Foer, con el objetivo de presentar una opción de ficción del Holocausto.
The question of how the Holocaust should be represented is and has been a problematic and essential question in Holocaust Studies. Certain academics and intellectuals have denied the possibility of representation, and very specially, have denied the use of literary and cinematographic fiction. This thesis analyses the three stages of reception of the Holocaust and their predominant academic discourses. The initial silence and social invisibility of the genocide, in which the Adornian dictum is formulated on the unrepresentability of the genocide of European Jews. Later, the Holocaust is made socially visible, and the emergence of controversial works of fiction force us to consider the option of certain “limits of representation”. And, recently, in which fiction about the Holocaust has become popularized and globalized, and become part of the entertainment and consumer mass media. In this context, in which fictional representations of the genocide of European Jews are now part of our culture, this case study focuses on the narratological analysis of the book, Everything is Illuminated (2002), by Jonathan Safran Foer, in order to present a fictional choice of the Holocaust.

Full textThe thematic study about the evolution of the Holocaust representation emphasizes the works’ domination of the constancy. The Cinema’s proper traditions, the authors’ tendencies to evade the inconceivable but true aspects of the event, and the subordination to political and social strengths explain this phenomenon. Thus, the gas chambers’ representation obeils all ethical standards. The civilians’ military revolt suffers from an uninspiring representation. The Holocaust’s remembrance, determined by the official authorities of the studied countries, corresponds to the latter’s traditions and reflects their deep nature. The Holocaust’s instrumentalization, different from one country to another is an essential element of cinema. The Holocaust’s specificity is being ignored: children as the ultimate victims, the judeocide’s universal character, the Jewish Councils’ defect of representation, women’s under-representation as compared to men contribute to cinema’s fault of representation. The noticed evolution is most of the time the result of the works’ conformity with the political and social changes of the concerned country. Through cinema, Holocaust gained the status of an essential myth of the liberal democracy in the name of universal moral values, hiding thus the syndrome of a society unable to refer to its own past and to plan ahead in absence of spiritual and moral project

Full textThis thesis of comparative literature aims to relate pieces inhabited by history and to question literary representations of the body in the face of the extreme hardship of confinement. The aim of this research, which unfolds in three parts, is to question human nature through the prism of writing when confronted with the traumatic experience of concentration camps and Nazi exterminations in the Second World War, by paralleling pieces, factual and fictional, which draw their ressources from both reality and fiction like interconnecting vessels. More specifically, as part of the first section we concentrate on the way the limit-experience of being manifests itself in these accounts. The confusion of identity and the dehumanization disrupt the representation of the body, thus impeaching it.This doubt fits into the language itself : how does one tell the unimaginable ? In the second section we focus on the inexpressible aspect of the event and reflect on the diversions, the displacements that literature can offer to say what, at first, seems indescribable. Imagery and symbolism create new forms of literature.This analysis allows us to develop the theme that we call organic writing, which is composed of and articulates itself through corporeity. Language and body superpose themselves in an architectural dynamic. Writing leaves a trace. Writing gives rise to new forms. Literature would therefore be the fertile soil of revival, the writing of a new human being, forever metamorphosed by the concentration camp experience

Full textO Holocausto enquanto facto histórico de proporções sem precedente na história da Humanidade tornou-se um tema literário largamente abordado, inicialmente pelos sobreviventes, que sentiram a necessidade de partilhar a sua experiência, tendo o tema posteriormente também captado o interesse doutros autores. Este conjunto de obras literárias deu origem a um subgénero literário: a Literatura do Holocausto. Em Portugal, contudo, esta temática não suscitou o interesse do mundo literário, sendo Ilse Losa (1913-2006), autora de origem alemã, com ascendência judaica, vinda para Portugal em virtude da perseguição de que foi alvo pelos nazis na Alemanha, uma exceção. A temática do Holocausto é recorrente na obra narrativa desta escritora e constitui o tema da presente dissertação, intitulada A Representação do Holocausto em Ilse Losa. Este estudo centra-se na análise dos romances O mundo em que vivi (1949), Rio sem ponte (1952), Sob céus estranhos (1962) e em alguns contos integrados no volume Caminhos sem destino (1991). A leitura das narrativas da autora, focada no tema em questão, é entendida como uma proposta de roteiro de exploração, que, além de um capítulo dedicado à contextualização da obra losiana no âmbito da Literatura do Holocausto e da Literatura Portuguesa, se centra na análise dos seguintes aspetos: os períodos temporais que contextualizam o facto histórico (o tempo antes, durante e após o Holocausto) e os valores que predominam em cada um; os atores envolvidos no acontecimento (as vítimas, os perpetradores, os observadores passivos e os oponentes ao regime); as estratégias narrativas implementadas que sustentam essa representação (os tipos de narradores, o recurso à analepse e à prolepse, o uso da carta como recurso narrativo, a enunciação do ato de recordar e a descrição física); e os termos em que se pode conceber uma dimensão pedagógica nestas narrativas.
The Holocaust as an unprecedented fact in the history of mankind has become a widely literary subject initiated by the survivors who felt the need to share their experience and then captivate the interest of other authors. This body of works gave origin to a literary subgenre: the Holocaust literature. However, in Portugal, writers did not show interest in that subject, except for Ilse Losa (1913-2006), a Portuguese/German author born to a Jewish family who was forced to leave Germany due to Nazi persecution. The Holocaust is a recurring subject in the work of this writer and it is the subject of this dissertation The Representation of Holocaust in Ilse Losa. This study focuses on the analyses of the novels O mundo em que vivi (1949), Rio sem ponte (1952), Sob céus estranhos (1962) and some short stories in the volume Caminhos sem destino (1991). In addition to a chapter dedicated to the contextualization of the work of Ilse Losa’s Holocaust Literature and Portuguese Literature, this authors’ novels are perceived as a guide to explore what is concentrated in the analysis of the following aspects: the time periods of the historical fact (the years before, during and after the Holocaust) and the values that prevailed; the elements involved in that event (the victims, the perpetrators, the bystanders and the opponents of the regime); the literary devices that sustained this representation (the type of narrator, the flashbacks and the flashforwards, the use of the letter as a narrative technique, the act of remembering and the physical description); and the words in which one can conceive a pedagogical dimension in these novels.
