Pogodny jesienny dzień. Ramy świadectwa Zagłady
Fair Autumn Day

Summary/Abstract: The frames of testimony can be comprehended as social and political, into which a story is inserted, and as frames created for such a story by specially selected listeners – therapists, family members, friends. Upon the example of two texts written immediately after the war by a Holocaust Survivor and a description of the same events made many years later the author indicates the way in which changing frames impact the contents and form of oral tradition. Survivors pass away and the successive generation faces the question of how to make use of tradition created by “moral witnesses” of history.
