What is True and What is Right? An Infant Jewish Orphan's Identity
Original language description
In this chapter based on the case of Ester Franko, a child Holocaust survivor from Greece, the author scrutinises the confusion over identity of Jewish orphans rescued by non-Jews who continued living with their foster families after the Second World War while simultaneously being integrated into the Jewish community. The focus is on both Franko's own experiences within her Greek foster family and her attitude towards the revelation of her Jewish identity. With whom does Ester Franko identify as a child and with whom as an adult woman? How does she deal with what happened to her biological parents? Who were her foster family and were they her rightful guardians? Based on archival sources, oral testimonies and memoirs, this chapter tracks how Franko's transforming narrative of her survival impacted on her identity and how her loyalties shifted over time, according to the different stages of her life.
