The research focuses on Holocaust survivors and their post-Holocaust children, issues of memory in Holocaust representation, types of memory, memory mediation, author’s intentionality, gender and identity issues. }, doi = {10.4467/24500100STJ.18.003.9173}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/czasopismo/studia-judaica/artykul/memory-mediation-by-first-and-second-generation-survivors-why-they-said-nothing-mother-and-daughter-on-one-and-the-same-war-by-magda-bosan-simin-and-nevena-simin} }
