Abstract

In these tentative reflections on our "mental diaries" of the Judeocide, I am concerned with selective remembering as well as with selective forgetting. I also propose to consider the timeliness of reinserting a universal dimension into the social and public memory of the Judeocide that, it seems to me, has become excessively sectarian.
