22 February, 2024

The research project aims to build on this tradition of witnessing. Our interdisciplinary research team consists of Dr. Anne-Christin Klotz, historian, and cultural scientist with a focus on the history of the Shoah in Eastern Europe and Yiddish culture, and Dr. Jasmin Spiegel, psychologist, and psychoanalyst with a clinical focus on post-traumatic stress disorder. As an interdisciplinary research team that operates at the interface between psychology, history and cultural studies, we have set ourselves the goal of collecting, recording and bearing witness to Jewish perspectives on and experiences with antisemitism after the massacre of October 7 within the German context. The interviews are to be conducted by using interview guidelines and analyzed scientifically. The questions that will be asked relate, among other things, to the experience of various forms of antisemitism, the perceived safety as Jews in Germany and the relationships with the respective non-Jewish environment. Furthermore, a possible transmission of familial traumas, influences, and changes on the individual's own Jewish identity as well as possible coping strategies will also be examined.
