This dissertation opens important new avenues towards retaining and harnessing the relevance of the catastrophic events and subsequent postwar passage of the lingering traumatic legacy of the Holocaust. Two variables of this study, traumatic affect and identity, use the third, personal narrative, reflected by late postwar written memoirs, as the theoretical critical lens to examine the evolution of narrative construction and focus in three generations of Jewish survivors. Juxtaposing these three variables enables an analytical examination that builds up an overview that functions both horizontally (intergenerational) and vertically (intragenerational). The resulting comparative analysis of emerging data within an individual, a single family, or across generations of Jewish survivors, demonstrates the constantly changing passage of narrative in response to the process of "working through" through trauma and re-establishing their lost prewar individual, familial, societal and collective/cultural identities.These organizational constructs enable a longitudinal "backlook" at how memoirs provide the later perspectives of "insiders" after the Holocaust and addresses the use of narrative as a means of enhancing positive long-term outcomes in response to its lingering legacy. The prolific stream of recent memoirs written by three generations of Jews illustrates the changing narrative forms and foci that attest to their continued and complex current relationships with their traumatic pasts, what Schwab has called "haunting legacies". In addition, this examination demonstrates not only the changes, but also the challenges of working through that still remain clearly apparent. These address the inherent conflicts between history and memory, capturing the imagination of the reader and providing new narrative insights that are both a process and a product. Survivor stories as testimony have been redirected to ensuring the continuation of their families that imbue the future generations with the longing and love for this lost past in tandem with the lessons learned about continuity and survival. History has become "his/her story, my story, your story and our story".Besides the capacity for using memoir as a means of beginning to confront and heal trauma, the nuclear half-life of the Holocaust, still so apparent in the current rising threats of antisemitism, also has immediate relevance when applied to other genocides and legacies of violent pasts, mass migration and marginalized communities, such as the legacies of racism and of slavery, which are now are making themselves seen and heard. These prove the urgency of more actively engaging in the messages of the past, delivered in memoirs, with renewed energy in order to apply its lessons to the present and future.
