Abstract:
A translation of the preface to the author's book (in Greek) "La literatura como testimonio: Prosistas griegos en torno al genocidio de los hebreos: Antología" (Salonica: Paratiritis, 1995). The book contains literary texts about the Holocaust by Greek writers from 1945-87. Analyzes common themes in the texts, such as Christian-Jewish coexistence, descriptions of racial persecution, and Holocaust experiences, and relates to the literary form, which ranges from the realistic to the fantastic. Emphasizes the efforts of the writers to avoid literary stereotypes typical of the European tradition.
