Descripción del proyecto
My project discusses trans-territorial aspect of the individual search for retribution for crimes committed during the Second World War in East-Central Europe, focusing specifically on the immediate post-war response of Jewish pre-war Polish citizens to wartime norm-violating behaviour. As Polish Jews left Poland and settled abroad, my research will cross the traditional historiographical post-war divide between West and East, showing how people moved between those two zones just before the Iron Curtain came down, how they dealt with their memories and how they would go on to build what we refer to, following the conceptual framework developed by Barbara Rosenwein, as emotional communities dened by the social affiliation and shared memories. As such, this project contributes both to writing an integrative, multi-ethnic history of post-war Poland and to the global history of rebuilding of shattered society post-conflict.
My work will provide a synthetic interdisciplinary and cross-regional study of the institutions, actors, and larger implications of retribution, while tracing trajectories of individuals and the impact of their journeys on the links between collectives around the world. It will focus on individual agency in seeking retribution, taking into consideration gender, age, social status and geographic location as key aspects in shaping it. The project will be introducing a new methodology, combining research tools of history, history of emotions, legal history and digital humanities. It will be primarily carried out under the supervision of professor Michael Brenner at the Department of Jewish History and Culture at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (LMU), with a three-month secondment focused on training in the history of Jewish legal representation at the Leibniz-Institut für jüdische Geschichte und Kultur – Simon Dubnow (DI) under the supervision of Dr. Elisabeth Gallas.
