Three Jewish Dissidents in Communist Hungary
István Szabó
István Szabó is one of the few Hungarian filmmakers to have earned a major international reputation over the past half century. His 1981 film, Mephisto, was the first film by a Hungarian director to be awarded the Academy Award for Best Foreign Film, and he has directed more than 15 feature films, in Hungarian, German, and English starring actors like Ralph Fiennes, Glenn Close, Annette Benning and Helen Mirren, Yet Szabó's importance as a filmma…

Memory Troubles
Critics generally agree that Beauvoir's novel Les Mandarins, which won the Prix Goncourt in 1954, is an important work of historical fiction, chronicling the lives and loves of left-wing intellectuals in Paris during the years following World War II. In this essay I argue that Les Mandarins is as much about the war as about the postwar, and that its meaning for contemporary readers was deeply linked (even if not in a fully recognized way) to memo…
When the Perpetrator Becomes a Reliable Witness of the Holocaust
Purporting to be the first-person narrative of a former SS officer writing many years after World War II, Jonathan Littell's Les bienveillantes, published in France in 2006, became the biggest best seller of the year and won the most prestigious French literary prize, the Prix Goncourt. The author, an American, wrote the book in French. Many critics praised the novel, comparing it to War and Peace and other masterpieces, while others were quite h…

Susan Suleiman Responds to Judith Herman
Susan Suleiman Responds to Judith Herman Susan Rubin Suleiman (bio) Judith Herman’s comments made me realize that I had expressed myself clumsily in places, and I am glad to have this chance at clarification. My aim in my essay was to try to understand the stakes in a major contemporary debate, not to take sides. As concerns the question of memory and the definition of trauma, the conflicted issue is not memory disturbance, but total obliteration…
Judith Herman and Contemporary Trauma Theory
Judith Herman and Contemporary Trauma Theory Susan Rubin Suleiman (bio) Trauma studies constitutes a huge field today, keeping whole armies of theorists—philosophers, literary scholars, and historians as well as clinicians—very busy. There are many reasons for this, starting with the enormous and still growing interest in the Holocaust and other collective historical traumas (the diagnosis of posttraumatic stress disorder, which first entered the…

Jewish Assimilation in Hungary, the Holocaust, and Epic Film
An English-language film with an almost exclusively Anglo-American cast, produced in Canada, filmed in Hungary, with a screenplay co-written by an American playwright and a Hungarian director who is best known in the West for a prize-winning film in German: István Szabó's Sunshine is nothing if not global. 1 Yet, it treats a subject that is specifically and profoundly Hungarian, or if you will, Central European: the role and fate of Jews in 20th …
Problems of Memory and Factuality in Recent Holocaust Memoirs
This essay explores questions about memory and its relation to historical truth, chiefly through an examination of the "Wilkomirski case,"involving a highly acclaimed Holocaust memoir that has now been shown to be a fake. I argue that the categorical distinction between memoir and novel, while not always easy or even possible to determine, is nonetheless important;Wilkomirski's Fragments is neither an authentic memoir nor a novel but a false or d…

Risking Who One Is
Susan Suleiman sets forth in this work an exchange with contemporary writers and artists. Simone de Beauvoir, Helene Cixous, Elie Wiesel, Mary Gordon, Max Ernst, Angela Carter, and others enter through Sulieman's reading into a dialogue with each other - and with us as readers. Suleiman thus includes us in her voyage of self-discovery as she confronts the conflicts between writing and motherhood, the paradoxes of postmodernism, the place of beaut…

The Reader in the Text
A reader may be in" a text as a character is in a novel, but also as one is in a train of thought--both possessing and being possessed by it. This paradox suggests the ambiguities inherent in the concept of audience. In these original essays, a group of international scholars raises fundamental questions about the status--be it rhetorical, semiotic and structuralist, phenomenological, subjective and psychoanalytic, sociological and historical, or…

The Structure of Confrontation
It was around 1930, according to Sartre, that Frenchmen discovered, with stupefaction, their historicity.1 What he meant by that sweeping generalization was that Frenchmen, like other Europeans, re-discovered the menaces of history after les grandes vacances of the 1920's. Suddenly there was the feeling that the life of an individual did not depend on his own efforts, on luck, or on the good or ill will of a few people, but was rather governed by…

The Place of Linguistics in Contemporary Literary Theory
rT _IME WAS (about fifteen years ago, give or take a few) when a special issue of ajournal devoted to the question of and literature might have been expected to present a fairly homogeneous set of essays, at least as far as the main assumptions underlying them were concerned. Linguistics, to be sure, was itself not a homogeneous discipline, divided as it was among the various brands of structural linguistics (Hjelmslevian, Harrisian, Jakobsonian,…
