Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

For many decades, Jewish life in Europe was a synonym for the Holocaust, and post-war Europe was, to a certain extent, rebuilt with the Shoa as a cornerstone of its identity and the primary purpose of existence. Scholars view this historical event in even broader contexts – as defining for all of humanity. Dan Diner introduces the concept of “the rupture of civilization”¹ (Zivilisationsbruch), which attributes both a universal and particular dimension to the Holocaust: “This universal crime was perpetrated against humanity in the medium of the extinction of a particular group, namely the Jews.”² Aleida Assmann comprehends the Holocaust as a “universal symbol with a global resonance”³ that gained its fields of action through representations such as images, films, books, events, and discourses. Despite its global impact, Assmann, however, also remarks that the historical memory of the Holocaust is close-knit with Europe and World War II. Therefore, it is not unexpected that European Jewish communities have remained suffering from the consequences of the Holocaust – in terms of demography, impacts of intergenerational traumas, and collective uncertainties between Jews and non-Jews.
