Abstract

[eng] There are few areas in twentieth-century literature as hermetic and seemingly well-defined as Concentration-Camp literature. It is acorpus with thematic unity, but at the same time with very specific formal coordinates, almost aliterary genre in itself, which, despite its relatively small numbers, has resulted in undisputed masterpieces of world literature, as well as several Nobel prizes. Primo Levi or Imre Kertész could be mentioned here because, to this day, camp literature is mostly associated with the written testimonies of survivors of Auschwitz or other Nazi concentration camps.
