On Religiousness after the Holocaust
On Religiousness after the Holocaust

Summary/Abstract: How does a Jew who suffered in/after the death camps see him/herself, religiously speaking? ‘The post-Holocaust era will be a religious one or it will not be at all.’ Do we have the right to imagine this Jewish alternative to Malraux’ statement? What position would Christianity take in this matter? In trying to reach for answers to the questions risen above, I intend to discuss the one aspect of Jewish identity that was probably the most affected by the Nazi experience – the religious self awareness.
