Résumé :

The article focuses on death zones in concentration camps and those that in themselves were purely death camps. In 1944–1945, in the concentration camp system, these places were spaces of dying, where emaciated and sick prisoners were locked away, thus condemning them to death. Although mass murders were also committed in these places, the majority of the inmates died due to the inaction of camp personnel, who out of their passivity made yet another way of killing prisoners deemed “useless”. The first section of the paper presents the findings of historians, and strives to show on their basis when and why death camps and death zones appeared, how they functioned, and where they were located. In the second part the focus is on a specific death zone: the Little Camp at Buchenwald. This fragment of the article gives the floor above all to former prisoners of this place, as well as inmates of the main camp at Buchenwald who were able to observe from behind the barbed wire the fate of those consigned to the Little Camp.

“From the ovens we rise with our fists in the air. Now is the time.” My grandfather, Dovid Zisman, was a Yiddish playwright and poet, writing and performing while in the Łódz´ Ghetto and Buchenwald concentration camp. Poetry, song, and performance were his way to speak the unspeakable. A messy assemblage of theories, memoirs, verses, images, and recordings reveal what we can inherit through writing as resistance and through the creative mappings of space and time.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

This article utilises the theoretical perspectives of the forensic turn to further expand our historical understandings and interpretations of the events of the Holocaust. More specifically, it applies a theory of the materialities of dead bodies to historically reconstruct and reinterpret the death march from Buchenwald to Dachau from 7 to 28 April 1945. It focuses on dead bodies as ‘evidence’, but explores how the evidential meanings of corpses along the death-march route evolved and changed during the march itself and in the aftermath of discovery by approaching American military forces. While drawing on theories of the evidential use of dead bodies, it remains firmly grounded in empirical historical research based on archival sources. The archives at the Buchenwald Concentration Camp contain eyewitness accounts and post-war trial testimony that enable a deeply contextualised ‘microhistory’ of the geography, movements, perpetrators, victims and events along this specific death march in April and May 1945. This ‘thick description’ provides the necessary context for a theoretical reading of the changing evidential meanings of dead bodies as the death march wove its way from Buchenwald to Dachau and the war and the Holocaust drew to an end.

Résumé :

Cette thèse a pour objet l'étude de l'encadrement normatif de l'internement concentrationnaire. Ce concept désigne les règles et procédures produites et appliquées par les administrations concentrationnaires et encadrant le quotidien des détenus internés dans les camps de concentration nazis. Notre étude est pragmatique. Elle se fonde principalement sur l'analyse des archives des administrations concentrationnaires : les règles et procédures concernant l'internement des détenus édictées par les administrations centrales et leur application au niveau du camp de Buchenwald principalement. Cette approche permet de démontrer que l'internement du détenu n'est pas caractérisé par l'arbitraire. Il se déroule au contraire conformément à un encadrement normatif aux caractéristiques spécifiques. Malgré des imperfections formelles dues à leur fondement spécifique sur la Volonté du Führer (Führerwille), les règles et procédures concentrationnaires encadrent l'ensemble de l'internement du détenu : les contacts avec l'extérieur, la répression disciplinaire, le travail forcé et la mort. La participation du personnel SS et civil ou des détenus au fonctionnement du camp se fait ainsi conformément à un encadrement normatif. Cela explique en partie pourquoi les différents acteurs, croyant leurs actes fondés et justifiés par cet encadrement normatif d'allure pseudo-juridique, participèrent au fonctionnement des camps
The object of this thesis is to study the normative framework of concentration camp internment. The term ‘normative framework’ refers to the rules and procedures established and applied by the concentration camp administrations and which governed the internment of those prisoners in Nazi concentration camps. Our study is pragmatic. It is based primarily on the analysis of concentration camps’ administrative archives: the rules and procedures issued by central administrations concerning the internment of prisoners and their application, mainly at the Buchenwald camp.This approach demonstrates that the period of internment was not characteristically arbitrary. Rather, it occurred in accordance with a normative framework with specific characteristics. Despite formal imperfections due to their specific foundation in the Führer’s Will (Führerwille), concentration camp rules and procedures governed the inmate’s entire internment: contacts with the outside, punishment, forced labor and death. The participation of SS members, or employees of firms using detainee labor or even detainees themselves, was carried out in accordance with a normative framework. This explains in part why the various actors, believing their actions grounded in and justified by this pseudo-legal framework, took part in camp operations

Texte intégral

Résumé :

According to Nazi statistics, in 1945, approximately 10% of concentration and death camp guards were women. And yet, the Aufseherin, or female camp guard, is barely there in both Holocaust historiography and literature. This is due to their relatively low numbers, gendered readings of the Holocaust, including the post-war categorisation of all women as victims of National Socialism, as well as reluctance to examine female perpetration. This reluctance extends into fiction, which has tended to focus on Holocaust victims not perpetrators due to a long-held belief that it’s unseemly at best, unethical at worst, to depict anyone other than the victims. On the few occasions that Aufseherinnen do appear in fiction, they are usually portrayed as masculinised sadists, when, for the most part, the reality was much more banal. This thesis contains an exegesis and a creative work. The exegesis looks at the history the female camp guard and explores her representation in literature, taking into account the changing emphasis brought by the application of women’s studies onto Holocaust historiography, as well as how the concept of all women as victims of National Socialism has created a dichotomous view of female Holocaust perpetrators as either victims or sadists, when the reality was more often somewhere between. It examines the relationship between empathy and sympathy, looking at whether negative empathy has created a taboo surrounding the portrayal of the female camp guard in fiction. It argues that negative empathy is necessary in order to gain a nuanced understanding of the female camp guard and challenges the notion that understanding equals forgiveness. It also explores how The Reader by Bernhard Schlink, which is the only novel to explore a female camp guard with nuance, and The Kindly Ones by Jonathan Littell, which is written from the first-person perspective of a Holocaust perpetrator, a perspective that does not yet exist for a female perpetrator in fiction, address these issues. The creative work is The Mare, historical fiction based on the true story of Hermine Braunsteiner, an Aufseherin who worked at Ravensbrück, Majdanek and Genthin. Written in the two first-person voices of Hermine and her American husband Russell Ryan, the novel seeks to represent a female camp guard with nuance, a feat that has not been achieved in fiction to date.

Résumé :

Hériter d’un récit inédit d’expérience concentrationnaire revient à accepter le devoir moral de l’interpréter. Le comparer avec deux œuvres littérairement consacrées portant sur le même thème permet alors de réfléchir sur l’inéluctable transformation que subit un vécu traumatisant lorsque l’on tente de le verbaliser. Il s’agit en effet de dire et de transmettre une aporie. C’est pourquoi le recours réussi à la métaphore apparaît comme le moyen le plus efficace de doter ce morceau de vie par nature indicible d’une rhétorique convaincante. Par conséquent, il faut transposer le vécu pour parvenir à le dire, mais aussi donner à voir un passé qui ne remonte à la conscience qu’en images, tout en affirmant ses références à un réel inscrit dans l’Histoire. Pour faire aboutir une telle entreprise, il s’agit donc d’élaborer une fiction à partir d’une réalité vécue, de la doter d’un mode d’écriture au pouvoir visualisant, et enfin d’y introduire une dialectique interne susceptible de déclencher chez le lecteur une réflexion éthique. En effet, la vérité du témoignage reste tributaire d’une identité qui ne se construit qu’à l’occasion de la mise en récit. De plus, le texte est confectionné au présent et à partir de simples traces mémorielles. Enfin même si l’historiographie en valide les références, il en demeure une part obscure qui échappera toujours au langage articulé. Ce questionnement sur ce qui peut donner au témoignage concentrationnaire sa force d’impact conduit ainsi à suggérer que, le camp ayant été vécu comme expérience de la défiguration, seule son inscription dans une poétique de l’incarnation susceptible de rendre à la lettre morte sa puissance explosive aidera le rescapé à reconquérir un visage
Inheriting the unpublished story of a concentration camp experience implies accepting the moral duty of its interpretation. Comparing it with two others literary works on the same topic allows to build a reflection about the inevitable transformation undergone by a traumatic experience when you attempt to verbalize it. In effect, that comes down to say and convey an aporia. That is why resorting successfully to metaphor seems to be the most efficient way to endow this piece of life, unspeakable by itself, with a convincing rhetoric. Therefore, it is necessary to transpose the experience in order to manage to tell it, but also to make visible a past that comes back to conscience only in the form of pictures, while asserting its references to a reality inscribed into History. To succeed in such an attempt, the method consists first in elaborating a fiction from a lived reality, then in giving its writing a power of visualisation, and eventually in introducing into it an internal dialectic capable of causing in the reader the uprising of an ethical reflection. In fact, the truth of any testimony remains tributary of an identity that is built only at the occasion of a storytelling. Moreover, the text is written in the present and from mere memorial marks. Finally, even when History gives validation to its references, a dark part remains, which will always escape the articulated language. This questionning about what may give the concentration camp experience its strenght of impact then leads to suggest that, since the camp has been lived as an experimentation of defiguration, it is only by inscribing it into a poetic of incarnation, capable of restituting to the dead letter its explosive power, that the survivor will be able to reconquer a human face

Résumé :

‘The Third Reich’s world of camps’ examines the history of the Nazi camp system, comparing labour camps devised to build the ‘racial community’ with concentration camps set up to exclude political opponents and eventually to eradicate unwanted others—‘asocials’ and then Jews. The SS concentration camps at Buchenwald, Dachau, and Sachsenhausen, which were designed to brutalize the inmates and at which death was common, can be distinguished from the death camps at Chełmno, Bełżec, Sobibór, and Treblinka. Exceptions were Majdanek and Auschwitz, which by 1942 combined the functions of concentration and death camps. The images and testimonies of the liberation of the Nazi camps have shaped our definition of concentration camps.

It contained about two hundred Gypsies from the Buchenwald concentration camp who were put into Birkenau II e, a new and as yet uncompleted section of the Birkenau part of Auschwitz (B II e). A second transport reached the camp on March 1, and from this date on the pace of arrivals quickened. By the end of 1943, a total of 18,738 Gypsies had been registered by name, the largest part having been delivered by the end of May. Eventually about 23,000 men, women and children were to be incar cerated for varying lengths of time in the Gypsy family camp.1

Résumé :

Abstract Many years after he became one of the first of the Allied troops to enter Buchenwald concentration camp, Leon Bass, a black American, observed: On this day in April in 1945, with some of my comrades, I walked through the gates of a place called Buchenwald. 1 was totally unprepared for what I saw. Someone of 19 couldn’t have been prepared, for he hasn’t lived long enough. I was still trying to develop my value system. I was still trying to sort things out, and then all of a sudden, slap—right in the face—was. the horror perpetrated by man against man. In the aftermath, as this poignant statement suggests, America’s wars have often brought blacks and whites much closer to the complex interweaving of individual courage, cowardice, national purpose, and collective memory, and closer still to the discovery that battlefields can become symbolic of the larger struggle for racial justice in the United States.

Résumé :

Abstract This chapter focuses on Theresienstadt, the concentration camp near Prague that held a unique place in the Nazis’ campaign of extermination. It discusses how the concentration camp was presented to the outside world as a self-governing Jewish settlement, which was a way to support the fiction that the removal of Jews from German society was being carried out in a humane fashion. The concentration camp survivor H. G. Adler considers the purpose of Theresienstadt as the most gruesome ghost dance in the history of Adolf Hitler’s persecution of the Jews. The chapter highlights how Adler gathered his materials since he entered Theresienstadt to his eventual release from Auschwitz, and compiled them into his work entitled Theresienstadt 1941–1945. Adler’s book is divided into History, Sociology, and Psychology and contains primary sources as well as his own words.

Résumé :

This chapter explores Schmitt’s notion of the exceptional and its relation to a normative situation. Neill Blomkamp’s Elysium (2013) presents a scenario that constitutes the future because the emergence of a radical new technological invention has disturbed the political coordinates of the present; with the invention of the so-called Med-Bay machine, it is now possible to cure everything. In such a society, the political collapses, but it restores itself by devising a pre-modern political construction: the city gate in the form of Elysium’s architecture as a floating space paradise, physically distanced from Earth. This distance prevents access to the Med-Bay machines, transforming Earth (where no one has access to the Med-Bays) into a gigantic concentration camp, an anomaly that turns into the norm. Elysium has become the exception, even if its politicians stubbornly (perhaps hypocritically) adhere to a liberal-humanistic norm that in peaceful times allows them to keep believing that they still represent civilization. That this civilized world can only exist by elevating itself to an exception—which thereby turns Earth’s miserable and lost population into the norm—constitutes a political conundrum that the film never fully manages to resolve.

Résumé :

The Study presents the most important person of the journalism of the 20th century, in the context of development of the Czech journalism. It brings Peroutka´s (1895-1978) brief biography and emphasizes his activities in the journal Přítomnost. The author points to Peroutka´s connection with the friendly group around Karel Čapek, to his imprisonment in a concentration camp and his life in exile in the United States of America, connected with his cooperation with Radio Free Europe. He describes Peroutka´s journalistic and fiction work (short stories, dramas, and a novel). He deals with Peroutka´s attitude to the fiction literature, especially to the Russian fiction, which had been the subject of Peroutka´s interest for more than 60 years. Based on the analysis of the book-published work, the author documents Peroutka´s orientation in the given questions and his opinions on both the whole of Russian fiction literature and its important representatives: Tolstoy, Chekhov, Dostojevsky, Pasternak, Solzhenitsyn.
