The joint discussion of Roger Frie’s “From Memorials to Bomb Shelters” and Martin Gossmann’s “Memento Auschwitz: Growing Up in Post-War Germany” examines some of the intergenerational psychological issues related to the atrocities committed during the Third Reich: the fate of autobiographical and collective memories as these are transmitted from generation to generation and the moral imperative to remember the Holocaust and the emotional obstacles that stand in its way. The discussion also includes the transformation of guilt into a sense of responsibility that can potentially lead to redeeming actions.
