Reception of Shoah-poems by lower-secondary school pupils

Summary/Abstract: In this article we present results concerning reception and interpretation of the selected poems written by children interned in the Terezín concentration camp. The main aim of the research was to verify the selected sample texts intended for a prospective monothematic collection depicting Shoah and designated for all grades of the lower-secondary stage. The impulse for the compilation of the Shoah-anthology was primarily the dismal state in integration of the texts on the Shoah from the contemporary intentional literature into the Czech reading-books. The research was conducted through a non-standardized questionnaire; a specific research tool was compiled for each grade of the lower-secondary stage. Exact formulation of the questions and tasks for working with the selected poems was determined by the current knowledge in the field of the didactics of literature. The results of the research piloting show that the pupils are not ready, in the majority of cases, to work in terms of the current pedagogical knowledge of literary education; they are limited in their reception of Shoah-poems by the absence of factual knowledge related to the Second World War.
