Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Minnesota, 1998.

Many autobiographical novels published in the 1980s and 1990s by assimilated, middle-class (Austro-) German Jewish women who survived the Holocaust depict a pronounced struggle to re-negotiate and reformulate German-Jewish identity. These works suggest that during the years of Nazi persecution the survivor lost her right to speak and behave as an autonomous individual, as a subject. Instead, she was reified as a Jew, a member of an "inferior race." This study analyzes the general historical context of German and Austrian Jews' pre- and postwar lives, and the effect of racial and gender reification on memory, identity, and writing. In particular, it focuses on the literary work of Grete Weil and Ruth Kluger which reveals how writing in semi-autobiographical or autobiographical form can facilitate a process of redefining identity and regaining agency.

520 $a Many autobiographical novels published in the 1980s and 1990s by assimilated, middle-class (Austro-) German Jewish women who survived the Holocaust depict a pronounced struggle to re-negotiate and reformulate German-Jewish identity. These works suggest that during the years of Nazi persecution the survivor lost her right to speak and behave as an autonomous individual, as a subject. Instead, she was reified as a Jew, a member of an "inferior race." This study analyzes the general historical context of German and Austrian Jews' pre- and postwar lives, and the effect of racial and gender reification on memory, identity, and writing. In particular, it focuses on the literary work of Grete Weil and Ruth Kluger which reveals how writing in semi-autobiographical or autobiographical form can facilitate a process of redefining identity and regaining agency.
520 $a The writing serves as the space in which the survivor reclaims a history from which she was forcefully removed, while simultaneously allowing her to explore and redefine the parts of her Jewish, her female, and her (Austro-) German identities by which she feels most reified. When these German-Jewish survivors publish these texts in the German language in the country where they were formerly persecuted, these authors move their rather private, emotional and psychological battle of exclusion from and persecution by the national community of their forebears to the rather public realm of these nations. They create an "address" for their stories, a step which is not only psychologically crucial for the survivor, but socially and politically important as well. Through their literature they create room for themselves as German or Austrian Jews to exist within these national communities, after the Holocaust.
520 $a Nevertheless, this literature does not result in a facile "homecoming," or easy renegotiation of identities. German identity remains problematic, and so does Jewish identity, as the latter proves difficult to reclaim for female authors--despite a pre-war Jewish women's tradition of religious domesticity with lower degrees of assimilation among Jewish women than men--precisely as a new feminist consciousness has made these authors aware of the inequalities in Jewish religious practice.
