Presentation Abstract

We have plenty of information on The Holocaust from the male point of view, such as Elie Wiesel, Primo Levi, and Viktor Frankl, but there is barely any information on the female point of view during The Holocaust beyond the point of Anne Frank or Ida Fink. This study shows the horror in the camps that women had to face. Women feared sexual harassment, among other horrible treatment in different camps. The sole purpose of this paper is to find more information on Jewish women’s experience in the ghettos and concentration camps and to understand the female victims of The Holocaust from different articles.
