Kitty Millet's study sounds the subjectivity of persecution by looking at victims' lived experiences of colonial occupation, physical confinement, and large-scale violence. I was moved as much as informed by her evocation of "what was lost†?: the sense of absence, the being with death, a feeling "outside the world,†? "a people without the memory of autonomy.†? A thorough and creative inquiry into the shared sense of experience.
Dennis B. Klein, Professor of History and Director of Jewish Studies Program, Kean University, USA
With The Victims of Slavery, Colonialism, and the Holocaust, Kitty Millet has delivered an extraordinarily compelling interpretation of three historical spheres that are rarely examined comparatively. Drawing primarily on victim and perpetrator narratives, Millet's brilliant analysis focuses on the victims' self-imagination, including their minds and physical bodies, toward the goal of surviving persecution.
Michael Berkowitz, Professor of Modern Jewish History, University College London, UK
This book provides a sophisticated investigation into the experience of being exterminated, as felt by victims of the Holocaust, and compares and contrasts this analysis with the experiences of people who have been colonized or enslaved. Using numerous victim accounts and a wide range of primary sources, the book moves away from the 'continuity thesis', with its insistence on colonial intent as the reason for victimization in relation to other historical examples of mass political violence, to look at the victim experience on its own terms. By affording each constituent case study its own distinctive aspects, The Victims of Slavery, Colonization and the Holocaust allows for a more enriching comparison of victim experience to be made that respects each group of victims in their uniqueness. It is an important, innovative volume for all students of the Holocaust, genocide and the history of mass political violence.
