Women in the Holocaust

A Feminist History

Beschreibung

A comprehensive study of women's lives during the Holocaust and how gender often operated as a crucial signifier for survival, with many pregnant women, women with young children, and those deemed unfit for hard labour being sent straight to the gas chambers; challenging the overlooking and oversimplification of the role of gender in the Holocaust.
