The Broken Voice: Reading Post-Holocaust Literature
ISBN: 9780198778363 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. 'Which writer today is not a writer of the Holocaust?' asked the late Imre Kertesz, Hungarian survivor and novelist, in his Nobel acceptance speech: 'one does not have to choose the Holocaust as one's subject to detect the broken voice that has dominated modern European art for decades'. Robert Eaglestone attends to this broken voice in literature in order to explore the meaning of the Holocaust in the contemporary world, arguing, again following Kertesz, that the Holocaust will 'remain through culture, which is really the vessel of memory'. Drawing on the thought of Hannah Arendt, Eaglestone...

The Holocaust and the Postmodern
ISBN: 9780199239375 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Robert Eaglestone argues that postmodernism, especially understood in the light of the work of Emmanuel Levinas and Jacques Derrida, is a response to the Holocaust. This way of thinking offers new perspectives on Holocaust testimony, literature, historiography, and post-Holocaust philosophy. While postmodernism is often derided for being either playful and superficial or obscure and elitist, Eaglestone argues and demonstrates its commitment both to the past and to ethics.
