TY - GEN T1 - Grotesque ambivalence : melancholy and mourning in the prose work of Albert Drach T2 - Conditio Judaica ; A1 - Cosgrove, Mary LA - English PP - Tübingen PB - M. Niemeyer YR - 2004 UL - https://ebooks.jgu.edu.in/Record/ebsco_acadsubs_ocn872676718 AB - The first English language study of Albert Drach's (1902-1995) prose work explores the originality of Drach's autobiography in the context of current Holocaust debates. Special attention is paid throughout to the relationship between Drach's comic-grotesque language and the melancholy mode of representation in the Holocaust trilogy. Both passionate and critical, Drach's prose lays bare the totalitarian power mechanisms of his time. OP - 237 NO - Originally presented as the author's thesis (doctoral)--University of Dublin, 2002.
