Oral history and the Holocaust in Slovakia: selective and contradictory memories

Title
Oral history and the Holocaust in Slovakia: selective and contradictory memories
Description
"Nearly thirty years ago, Monika Vrzgulovâa took part in the very first oral history research project aimed at Holocaust survivors in Slovakia. That project transformed her professional as well as her personal life. The Holocaust as a scholarly subject and the oral history method have stayed with her to this day. This book summarizes her findings and the experience she has acquired researching Holocaust memory, combining memory studies, oral history, autoethnography, and reflexive writing methods. It presents data from two international research projects which took part in Slovakia too and are available to experts and the public online. The insights gained from this research are contextualised with the social situation in a country that is trying to come to terms with its past after the fall of Communism." --
