Funded Activity Summary

The Holocaust as an Australian Story, 1933-1954: An Intimate History. This project intends to explore the connections between Australian and the Holocaust between 1933 and 1954. In doing so, the project will generate new ways of understanding how Jewish families and the community responded to, and actively resisted, Nazi genocide in Europe. Through detailed and micro-historical archival analysis, it will argue that the Holocaust was an event that both touched and changed Australia during a period of immense local transformation. The expected outcomes include a deeper understanding of the personal connections that have existed between parts of Australia's society and victims of genocides worldwide, and a new migrant and family-centred Australian history of the Holocaust.
