| Riepilogo: | Since the publication of Victor Klemperer's diaries in German in 1995 and in English in 1998, diaries penned by European Jews during the Holocaust have garnered sustained scholarly attention and a wide readership. Diaries offer scholars and students unparalleled insight into Jews' day-to-day existence under the Third Reich, and in particular into antisemitic persecutions that took on increasingly murderous proportions. Diarists analyzed contemporary developments and recorded their emotional states in fleeting moments of reflection that are lost to view in sources produced retrospectively. Oriented toward the future and not the past, diaries constitute a body of sources distinct from memoirs. |
