Mon Ombre Est Reste L-Bas

The study examines literary and filmic works on the subject of the Shoah, principally from the French-speaking world. Memory, space and time are the main categories used in the comparative interpretation of the works. By comparing the narrative processes through a systematic analysis of the spatial and temporal structures in film and literature, a differentiation and definition is achieved of the types of space. The study provides a compressed account of the various interacting factors within the process of memory.
