Summary/Abstract: Our purpose is to approach the narrative of the programmed annihilation of a people. The memory of this event became an ethical and political imperative after the liberation of the concentration camps. This memory of a concentration camp experience, which was lived by several intellectuals such as Jorge Semprun, Primo Levi, Jean Améry, Robert Antelme, Élie Wiesel, among others, reflects the traumatic experience of the Shoah. Our aim is to recall those stories whose narration involves individual and collective memory. Keywords: intellectuals, memory, narrative, trauma, identity reconstruction.
