Studies of Nazi persecution and destruction of Jews have to date largely been based on the accounts of men And yet gender difference in Western society is so profound that women and men seem to have divergent experiences speak different languages and see and hear in dissimilar ways Denise de Costas book explores the significance of sex and gender differences in the construction of history and societyspecifically the Nazi genocide of Jews in World War IIby focusing on the writing of two Jewish women Anne Frank and Etty Hillesum De Costa argues that although both of these writers have received much attention little has been done to understand how the significant difference occasioned by both gender and Jewishness helps to define cultural or personal identity in relation to the Holocaust De Costa uses a variety of psychoanalytic and feminist theories to approach the writing of Frank and Hillesum Critiquing as well as employing the concepts of Julia Kristeva Hélène Cixous Luce Irigaray and Simone de Beauvoir among others she presents a detailed and rich discussion of each writer De Costa approaches Anne Frank largely from a psychoanalytical perspective that emphasizes the function of writing itself in the development of selfidentity For Etty Hillesum she is more concerned with how writing establishes a philosophy and a faith that can entertain and is indeed based in doubleness and paradox Her assessment of these two writers makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the Holocaust as a cultural and historical phenomenon of the role of writing in the production and expression of gendered identity and of the complex relation between women writing and culture

In The Existential Philosophy of Etty Hillesum Meins GS Coetsier breaks new ground by demonstrating the Jewish existential nature of Etty Hillesums spiritual and cultural life in light of the writings of Martin Buber Emmanuel Levinas and Dietrich Bonhoeffer Hillesums diaries and letters written between 1941 and 1943 illustrate her struggle to come to terms with her personal life in the context of the Second World War and the Shoah By finding God under the rubble of the horrors she rediscovers the divine presence between humankind while taking up responsibility for the Other as a way to embrace justice and compassion In a fascinating accessible and thorough study Coetsier dispels much of the confusion that assails readers when they are exposed to the bewildering range of Christian and Jewish influences and other cultural interpretations of her writings The result is a convincing and profound picture of Etty Hillesums path to spiritual freedom
