Studies of Nazi persecution and destruction of Jews have to date largely been based on the accounts of men. And yet gender difference in Western society is so profound that women and men seem to have divergent experiences, speak different languages, and see and hear in dissimilar ways. Denise de Costa's book explores the significance of sex and gender differences in the construction of history and society-specifically, the Nazi genocide of Jews in World War II-by focusing on the writing of two Jewish women, Anne Frank and Etty Hillesum. De Costa argues that although both of these writers have received much attention, little has been done to understand how the significant difference occasioned by both gender and Jewishness helps to define cultural or personal identity in relation to the Holocaust. De Costa uses a variety of psychoanalytic and feminist theories to approach the writing of Frank and Hillesum. Critiquing as well as employing the concepts of Julia Kristeva, Hélène Cixous, Luce Irigaray, and Simone de Beauvoir among others, she presents a detailed and rich discussion of each writer. De Costa approaches Anne Frank largely from a psychoanalytical perspective that emphasizes the function of writing itself in the development of self-identity. For Etty Hillesum, she is more concerned with how writing establishes a philosophy, and a faith, that can entertain and is indeed based in doubleness and paradox. Her assessment of these two writers makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the Holocaust as a cultural and historical phenomenon, of the role of writing in the production and expression of gendered identity, and of the complex relation between women, writing, and culture.

For the first time, Etty Hillesum's diary and letters appear together to give us the fullest possible portrait of this extraordinary woman in the midst of World War II. In the darkest years of Nazi occupation and genocide, Etty Hillesum remained a celebrant of life whose lucid intelligence, sympathy, and almost impossible gallantry were themselves a form of inner resistance. The adult counterpart to Anne Frank, Hillesum testifies to the possibility of awareness and compassion in the face of the most devastating challenge to one's humanity. She died at Auschwitz in 1943 at the age of twenty-nine.

Un libro importante que nos aproxima a los escritos autobiográficos de cuatro mujeres judías, víctimas del Holocausto: Edith Stein, Simone Weil, Ana Frank y Etty Hillesum, cuatro intelectuales europeas de la primera mitad del siglo XX, que, ante la amenaza del exterminio nazi, encontraron un modo común para expresar su resistencia: escribir. El estudio comparativo de sus escritos proporciona un conocimiento original y fascinante de su pensamiento y experiencia vital, agrupados por la autora en cuatro ámbitos: - Construcción de su yo personal respecto a la identidad judía por la que eran condenadas pero con cuya cultura y tradición no se identificaban. - El personal proceso que desencadenó en su espíritu una identificación religiosa. - Valor de la expresión escrita en autobiografías y diarios. - Papel que jugó su condición femenina en las respuestas de humanidad que dieron a un mundo inhumano. Los contrastes y las coincidencias en su ser y hacer revelan su motivación, intenciones y fuerza: resistir escribiendo o escribir para resistir. Tras la publicación de este libro, los textos autobiográficos conservados de Stein, Weil, Frank y Hillesum se leen de otro modo, no sólo como fuente de información biográfica, sino como puertas abiertas al sentimiento y el pensamiento.
