Download or read book Survivor written by Harry Borden and published by Cassell. This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the course of five years, award-winning photographer Harry Borden has travelled the globe photographing survivors of the Holocaust. The people featured vary in age, gender and nationality, but are tied together by their experience and survival of one of the darkest moments in human history. Each memorable photograph is accompanied by a handwritten note from the sitter, ranging from poems, to memories, to hopes for the future, creating a strong sense of intimacy between sitter and reader. This intimacy is amplified by the home settings of many of the photographs, along with the photographer's use of available light at each scene. At the end of the book is a section providing additional information about each subject, detailing how and what they survived. Thought-provoking, moving and touching, with a foreword by Man Booker Prize-winning author Howard Jacobson, this book conveys the dignity and humanity of each subject's character. Survivor is a unique and powerful testimony of what it is to live with memories of the Holocaust.

Download or read book Self Portrait of a Holocaust Survivor written by Werner Weinberg and published by Hebrew Union College Press. This book was released on 2017-12-31 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The breadth of Werner Weinberg's scholarship was prodigious, yielding monographs on ancient Hebrew epigraphy and biblical exegesis; the syntax of Rabbinic Hebrew; medieval grammars; and numerous studies on various aspects of Modern Hebrew. Both Weinberg and Lisl, his wife, survived internment at the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. This collection of essays reprinted here, a little more than three decades after it first appeared, conveys Weinberg's ongoing struggle to put into words something that might offer understanding to post-Holocaust generations. But they are also about a survivor's own desire for meaning and sense in a senseless world. Most essays are framed around a series of questions which constitute Weinberg's "prison," and each time he attempts to pass through its portal, he finds himself "held back at the threshold." Self-Portrait of a Holocaust Survivor fuses together Weinberg's most personal reflections alongside careful analysis by an erudite theologian fully-versed in traditional Jewish sources and historiography. He moves between resisting and acquiescing to the implications of Bergen-Belsen, never shying away from the most painful questions about God, morality, virtue, and the individual's potential to do good. While today there is a vast literature penned by holocaust survivors and historians, this collection grapples with the concept of survivorship from a unique perspective.

Book excerpt: More than a collection of art and poetry, "The Portrait Project" highlights the inspiring resilience and courage of trauma survivors in the form of contemporary oil paintings, accompanying stories and powerful poetry.In the words of the artist, Danielle Festa: "In 2020 my cousin Sue came to me with the truth of her childhood sexual assault. What came as a tsunami of painful information was a release of stored trauma for her. She finally allowed herself to accept support, gain confidence and offload the weight of this secret. I asked if I could paint this transformation I saw. It was cathartic for me to throw down ink like Jackson Pollock for the background and to embroider the gold and white threads that represent her strength. I could not have predicted, but this opened up a new chapter in my life - I began painting old friends and making new ones while painting their stories of resilience. This has since developed into a 501(c)(3) organization, The Aplomb Project. Collaboration is my priority from the start. I ensure that everything from the reference painting, the pose, the outfit, the colors, photoshoot location and even the music I listen to while I paint, is the survivor's choice. It means the world to me that each one of them trusts me with their story and I take that responsibility seriously. Not only do the survivors get their paintings, but they also become part of a supportive community. This book features twelve survivors with inspiring stories of resilience, and empowering trauma-themed poetry. The stories are purposefully written without graphic details, but please take your time and be sure you are in a place to receive them. If you or someone you know has experienced trauma and are looking for support, please see a list of some reputable organizations available to help at theaplombproject.org/resources."
