Résumé anglais |
How have Americans learned of individual concentration camps whose raison d'être was not the extermination of Jews ? Americans initially read of Ravensbrück primarily in accounts that spoke to their concerns about Christianity and communism. Later, Americans would devote the most attention to the “Lapins,” Polish survivors of experimental surgery — because the “Lapins” offered an opportunity for Americans to work to repair an injustice — and to the Jews at Ravensbrück, which helped give Ravensbrück a place in the Holocaust narrative with which Americans are now familiar. American scholarly research has been both innovative and problematic in integrating analysis of concentration camps like Ravensbrück into the non-camp universe. Source : Éditeur (via Cairn.info) |
