| Samenvatting: | A long and justified standing controversy exists on the Eichmann Trial and the historiography of the Holocaust. Shapira details here with another aspect of the debate, the often delayed effect of this trial on Israeli society. Using two different individuals present in the audience, at the 1961 Eichmann Jerusalem Trial : the American Hannah Arendt and the Israeli Haim Guri, the author reveals the empathy concept, thus allowing us to apprehend why the Eichmann Trial allowed us, for the first time, to express a hidden shame, how it contributed to the demolition of the Canaanite ideology, and finally – how it contributed to “redirecting Israelis towards the Jewish people”. |
