If This Is a Woman (eBook, ePUB)

Studies on Women and Gender in the Holocaust
Redaktion: NeStáková, Denisa; Drábik, Jakub; Klacsmann, Borbála; Grosse-Sommer, Katja

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The present volume contains thirteen articles based on work presented at the "XX. Century Conference: If This Is A Woman" at Comenius University Bratislava in January 2019. The conference was organized against anti-gender narratives and related attacks on academic freedom and women's rights currently all too prevalent in East-Central Europe. The papers presented at the conference and in this volume focus, to a significant extent, on this region. They touch upon numerous points concerning gendered experiences of World War II and the Holocaust. By purposely emphasizing the female experience in the title, we encourage to fill the lacunae that still, four decades after the enrichment of Holocaust studies with a gendered lens, exist when it comes to female experiences.
