Joanna Beata Michlic

$13.68

Through an in-depth textual analysis of eyewitness testimonies, the author reconstructs various categories of child survivors and the ways in which they coped with social relations on the Aryan side in Nazi-occupied Poland, using concepts of “performance” pioneered by Goffman. These testimonies bring a new dimension to issues of betrayal and hostility as well as of sacrifice and dedication, creating a broader view of historical representation through pictures of individuals.
