Memory, History, Identity in David Rousset’s A World Apart

This original study ( Page format A4 - 21x29,7cm – spacing at 1 ½ ), analyses the way in which historic events and one’s memory, both collective and personal, of concentration camps, construct one’s identity in and after the season of Auschwitz. It will be only through the balanced relationship between the horror of Auschwitz and “the strength and the beauty of being alive” that the author can come to terms with his ‘new’ identity.
