description | While perspectives on gendered and sexual experiences, practices, and norms during the
Holocaust have significantly changed in recent decades, questions remain about how to
understand and represent these topics, particularly gender-based and sexual violence. In this
conversation, six Holocaust scholars, from varied backgrounds representing different
generations, respond to questions posed by the Special Issue editors, Dorota Glowacka and
Regina Mühlhäuser. They discuss the current state of debates about gender, sexuality, and
sexual violence during the Holocaust. Reflecting on the material conditions and distinguishable
geographical and ideological coordinates in which they have conducted their work, they
recount ideas and scholarly currents that have helped them generate their specific modes of
understanding. They consider the challenges and obstacles to knowledge production they have
faced in various stages of their work, revealing how ingrained assumptions about gender and
sexuality circumscribe research questions, methods of inquiry, and the ways in which their
findings are interpreted, presented, and received. While they address the impact of changing
social sensibilities and perceptions of gender and sexuality on their work and point to the
emergence of new themes and areas of study, they also draw attention to the subjects that
remain unexamined, socially sanctioned, or excluded from rigorous examination. |
