摘要

Abstract

The Nazi Holocaust is an unprecedented traumatic catastrophe for both Jewish individuals and communities

as well as for Western human history. Extending beyond individual psychological distress and psychoanalytic research

this trauma connects survivors' personal destinies with their social and moral responsibilities. By examining the trauma narratives in the film

Fugitive Pieces

and Elie Wiesel's

Night

this study argues that trauma writing functions as both a personal healing mechanism and a powerful witness to Nazi atrocities. More than merely recording history

such writing strives to repair the public moral order shattered by this humanitarian disaster.
