The lived analytic: layers of meaning(fullness) in the context of the Holocaust

John Bendix

johnbendix{at}hotmail.com

‘Holocaust consciousness’ has become a confused, monolithic, hortatory mix that can be better disaggregated, this essay suggests, by engaging in a series of moves: first by recasting what we mean by theory; second by drawing on both Tönnies and on family history to meld the analytic and personal perspectives more seamlessly together; and third by successively peeling away historical layers with a series of questions about how German and American society have recently coped with the legacy of the Holocaust, and then how my father and grandfather coped with their situations.

Key Words: affinity • American Judaism • family history • Gemeinschaft and Gesellschaft • Germany • heritage • identity and identification • intellectuals • memory • Rechtsstaat • self-understanding • Weimar • lawyers
