- Summary:
- The interviews, carried out by Weber in 1991, deal with the interviewees' thought in general and with their relationship to Judaism. Among the topics discussed are memory and meaning of the Holocaust, revisionist history, the impact of the Holocaust on the interviewees and their families, and antisemitism in Germany and France, past and present. Thalmann discusses the relationship between antisemitism and anti-feminism, and feminist views of the Holocaust. In the introduction, "Die jüngsten Kinder der Republik" (pp. 7-39), Weber describes the identification of French and Algerian Jews with the France of the Revolution and the Republic, to whom they owe their emancipation. This identification survived waves of anti-republicanism and antisemitism, which reached their heights in the Dreyfus Affair and in the Vichy regime's betrayal of its Jews. Suggests that what all seven thinkers have in common is their concern with the Holocaust, and the need to remember and testify. (From the Bibliography of the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism).
