Robinson w nie-miejscach pamięci
Robinson in the Non-places of Memory

Summary/Abstract: Non-places of memory are objects from the “margins of the Holocaust” and, more extensively, places potentially typical for Central Europe, connected with the massacre, burial, and disrupted lives of the victims of twentieth-century genocide; indicated by Claude Lanzmann as empty and unmarked spaces calling for commemoration they do not have a typology or a stabilised name of their own. Places-phantoms? Places-utopias? Simply – evil places? In an analysis conducted by Georges Didi-Huberman they become places of essential meaning, malgré tout, which could be deciphered as a call for an in-depth analysis of those small, scattered objects whose space today combines death and life, the human and the inhuman, memory and oblivion, the past and the present.
