This course delves into the themes of displacement, identity, memory, trauma, and resilience as depicted in literary works that bear witness to this historic humanitarian effort. Students will critically analyse the representation of Kindertransport in various genres, considering the ethical and aesthetic dimensions of storytelling in the context of historical trauma.
