From April to August 1937, Paul Rosner recorded his experiences while attending the Beth Halutz/Maccabi Hatzair boarding school in Berlin, and while participating in the Maccabi youth movement in Germany. Clearly illuminating his personal history in the group, the diary describes daily life, and offers a glimpse into several important events of the Berlin Jewish community, particularly within Zionist circles. This article first covers the history of the Maccabi youth movement, before analyzing the diary’s coverage of various topics including culture, religion, politics, and leisure. Previously, the official writings of the movement’s leaders dominated the narrative of this group, but Rosner’s diary offers a youth’s perspective that is both unique and complex, exploring the movement’s successful attempt to create a parallel Jewish reality for its members during a period of ongoing persecution.

This article analyzes the relationship between Holocaust trauma and firsthand poetic testimonies through the lens of literary acoustics. Specifically, it explores the work of three Jewish poets, Stanisław Wygodzki, Ilona Karmel, and Stanisław Jerzy Lec, who wrote in Polish of their tragic experiences in the Nazi camps. The article compares these poetical works to involuntary flashbacks composed of haunting sounds that recall trauma and violence and applies the concept of thantosonics to these auditory memories. In particular, the author notes the importance of trains as not only an auditory motif, but also as the metrical underpinning of the verses, and as a point of juxtaposition against sounds of innocence in the Holocaust soundscape. Furthermore, the article also explores the imagery of folk dance as a kind of danse macabre, as well as instances of involuntary sonic identification with the perpetrators.
本文从文学声学的角度分析了大屠杀创伤与第一手诗歌证词之间的关系。具体而言,文章探讨了 Stanisław Wygodzki、Ilona Karmel 和 Stanisław Jerzy Lec 三位犹太诗人的作品,他们用波兰语写下了自己在纳粹集中营的悲惨经历。文章将这些诗歌作品比作由萦绕心头的声音组成的不由自主的倒叙,让人回想起创伤和暴力,并将thantosonics的概念应用于这些听觉记忆。作者特别指出了火车的重要性,它不仅是一个听觉主题,也是诗句的韵律基础,还是与大屠杀音景中纯真声音并置的一个点。此外,文章还探讨了民间舞蹈作为一种恐怖舞蹈的意象,以及在声音上不由自主地认同犯罪者的情况。
