Abstract:
The Eichmann trial is usually acknowledged as a crucial turning point in the attitude of the Israeli public toward Holocaust survivors. Examines the views of the survivors as expressed in the Israeli Yiddish newspaper "Letste Nayes". Many survivors grasped their assigned role in Israeli society after the trial as a disappointment: their material loss and their heroism were indeed acknowledged for the first time by the Israeli public, but the extent of their cultural loss was never acknowledged because the Israeli ethos was built upon its rejection.
