Resumo: | Lili Jaffe, Noemi Jaffe and Leda Cartum. Survivor of the Shoah, her daughter and granddaughter. The publication, in 2012, of O que os cegos estão sonhando? (What are the blind ones dreaming of?) rummages in the delicate territory of the trauma resulting from the tragedy and its repercussions on the descendants of the victims; here, second and third generations, somehow doomed to live under the burden of trauma, the traumatized family. The memory of the victim, recorded in the form of a diary - but, in disagreement with the usual, with what the reader expects, a diary recorded after the facts -, recalls the question of trustworthiness, the reliability of memory, the relation between the facts “as they ocurred”, and the reworking of memories, desires, reports of other survivors. In addition to Lili Jaffe’s diary, the book contains reflections of her daughter Noemi Jaffe and also a chapter written by her granddaughter, Leda Cartum. The purpose of this article is to reflect on the developments of the so-called “Literature of testimony”, seventy years after Nazi barbarism, as well on its re-signification by descendants who have not lived the facts but are in some way affected by the sheer presence, effective or symbolic, of the victim. It is also proposed the adoption of the concept of “generations of writings”, for the appreciation of works of “Literature of testimony”, according to their temporal distance from the facts |

Sobrevivente da Shoah, filha e neta. A publicação, em 2012, de O que os cegos estão sonhando? remexe, ainda uma vez, no delicado território do trauma resultante da tragédia e suas repercussões nos descendentes das vítimas; aqui, segunda e terceira gerações, de certa forma condenadas a viver sob o peso do trauma, da família traumatizada. A memória da vítima, registrada em forma de diário - mas, em desacordo com o usual, com o esperado pelo leitor, diário registrado após os fatos -, recoloca a questão da fidedignidade, da confiabilidade da memória, da relação entre os fatos “como ocorreram”, e seu retrabalho pelas lembranças, pelos desejos, pelos relatos de outros sobreviventes. Além do diário de Lili Jaffe, o livro contém reflexões de sua filha Noemi Jaffe e também um capítulo escrito por sua neta, Leda Cartum. O objetivo deste artigo é refletir sobre os desdobramentos da chamada “Literatura de testemunho”, setenta anos depois da barbárie nazista, bem como sua ressignificação pelos descendentes, que não viveram os fatos mas são, de alguma forma, afetados pela simples presença, efetiva ou simbólica, da vítima. Propõe-se, ainda, a conveniência da adoção, para apreciação de obras da “Literatura de testemunho”, do conceito de “gerações de escritos”, em função de sua distância temporal em relação aos fatos.Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais2019-11-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/maaravi/article/view/2388310.17851/1982-3053.13.25.145-158Arquivo Maaravi: Revista Digital de Estudos Judaicos da UFMG; v. 13 n. 25 (2019): Guerras e conflitos nos arquivos judaicos; 145-1581982-3053reponame:Arquivo Maaravi: Revista Digital de Estudos Judaicos da UFMGinstname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGporhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/maaravi/article/view/23883/19312Kirschbaum , Saulinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2020-07-20T13:01:17Zoai:periodicos.ufmg.br:article/23883Revistahttp://www.periodicos.letras.ufmg.br/index.php/maaravi/indexPUBhttp://www.periodicos.letras.ufmg.br/index.php/maaravi/oai||lyslei@ufmg.br1982-30531982-3053opendoar:2020-07-20T13:01:17Arquivo Maaravi: Revista Digital de Estudos Judaicos da UFMG - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)false |
