In this article I discuss the entangled memories of the Holocaust and the anticolonial struggles in Western Europe in the 1960s by relating the writings of Jean Améry and Frantz Fanon. My aim is to show how Améry’s retrospective narrative of his lived experience in the Nazi camp was formed by his reading of Fanon’s experiences of colonialism, and how Fanon’s narrative of the colonial trauma was transposed and translated into Améry’s public testimony as a Holocaust survivor. The article argues that Améry’s individual memories found a certain mediated cultural form and narrative frame in the contemporaneous situation of decolonisation. The multilayered weave of fascist and colonial violence constituting Améry’s testimony highlights questions of memory’s multidirectionality and casts new light on how cultural memorial forms are shaped and shared.

纠结的暴力记忆:让·阿梅里和弗朗兹·范农

在本文中,我将通过讨论让·阿梅里(JeanAméry)和弗朗兹·范农(Frantz Fanon)的著作,来讨论大屠杀和1960年代西欧的反殖民斗争的纠结记忆。我的目的是展示阿梅里对他在纳粹集中营生活经历的回顾性叙述是如何通过他对法农的殖民主义经历的阅读而形成的,以及如何将法农对殖民地创伤的叙述转化为并转化为阿梅里作为大屠杀幸存者的公开证词。文章认为,在非殖民化的同时期,阿梅里的个人记忆找到了某种中介的文化形式和叙事框架。构成阿梅里证词的法西斯主义和殖民暴力的多层编织凸显了记忆的多向性问题,并为文化纪念形式的形成和共享方式提供了新的思路。
