application/pdf iconFlyer Public Lecture

Seventy years after the end of World War II the definition of Holocaust “survivor” remains contested and confused; our conventional narrative and iconography still does not include the majority of the “saved remnant” of European Jewry who survived beyond the borders of National Socialist occupation, primarily in the Soviet Union. The lecture explores their complex story and why it was forgotten. It examines the implications and stakes -- historical, political, and emotional -- of remapping wartime death and survival and examining more closely the diverse experiences and memories of those we collectively name as survivors even as we often do not know or even recognize their paths to survival.

Public keynote lecture by Prof. Atina Grossmann with an introduction by Prof. Stefanie Schüler-Springorum.
