Description

This course examines the poetry that reflects upon the Nazi destruction of 6,000,000 Jews during the Holocaust of World War II. The poetry is a testimony to the lost lives and the devastated souls. Poets re-create both the sorrow and the inspiration of varied Holocaust experiences. It focuses on communal and individual identity, memory, and the desire for self-representation. 3/0/0
