Revue d’histoire de la Shoah; Deborah Barton (Montréal), Andrea Peto (Central European University), Fabien Théofilakis (Paris), Zoe Waxman (Oxford) (Web)
Proposals by – extended: 28.06.2024
The leading French-language journal on the Holocaust, La Revue is pleased to cooperate with Eastern European Holocaust Studies. This special issue will explore a variety of topics, demographics, and geographies. It intends to cover the whole of Europe as well as to explore the role and experiences of victims, survivors, helpers, resisters, perpetrators, beneficiaries, and bystanders. Gender, as a fluid term, does not apply only to women and we encourage papers that also address the male and trans experience. Similarly, the editors welcome proposals to analyze situations of occupation/collaboration in terms of all possible forms of gendered relations between Nazis and local populations.
For this issue, the Revue is teaming up with the journal Eastern European Holocaust Studies (Web). Each journal will publish its own special issue on Gender and the Holocaust. By doing so simultaneously, the editors ensure a wider distribution and discussion of cutting-edge scholarship.
Suggested themes include but are not limited to gender and:
– everyday life inside and outside of the ghettos, camps and killing centres
– hiding
– age/aging
– bodies and sexuality
– intersectionality i.e. of gender, ethnicity, class (and so forth)
– parenting (motherhood/and or fatherhood) or family life under occupation
– youth movements
– religious life
– perpetrators/bystanders
– local populations
– liberation
– post-war trials
– remembrance/representation Continue reading
