This postdoctoral project focuses on the representation of the Holocaust in the work of Yugoslav authors of different generations and investigates how the memory of the Holocaust is constructed, transmitted, and evoked in relation to the representation of other instances of extreme state violence, such as during the Yugoslav wars of the 1990s. Exploring how Serbian, Bosnian, and Croatian fiction constructs and transmits memories of the Holocaust and examining how these memories intersect with other histories of suffering in the region, he seeks to contribute to the debate about the workings of trauma and memory, and about the aesthetic and ethical aspects of the intergenerational transmission of traumatic memory.
