Didn’t They Mourn Them?
Didn’t They Mourn Them?

Summary/Abstract: Krystyna Duniec and Joanna Krakowska provide insight into the Polish consciousness of the Jewish fate, and into the process of constructing a Polish identity after the Holocaust. The article points out that Polish memory and consciousness of the Holocaust have undergone transformations less political than psychological, ideological, and ethical. Using examples from literature, theater, and film from various time periods they demonstrate how memory has served various historical reckonings, while becoming a stable part of constructs of various Polish identities.
