摘要：

Seeing the Sites: The Topography of Memory and Identity in Ruth Kluger's weiter leben by Erica Wickerson Having evaded the Auschwitz gas chambers at the age of twelve, Ruth Kluger posits escape as the unifying thread of weiter leben and the thematic intersection between memory and identity. Spatial manipulation is both the form and the theme of Kluger's autobiographical reconstruction. Employing and extending Massey's discussion of topography as a site of representation, Assmann's approach to memorialized sites, and Caruth's discussions of traumatic revisualization, this article analyses spatial transformations in weiter leben as attempts to reassert lost agency. In the light of Kluger's concept of 'Zeitschaften', it situates the recollection and transformation of traumatic spaces both within and beyond temporal confines.
