| Итог: | Etty Hillesum, a young Jewish woman from the Netherlands, died on 30 November 1943 in Auschwitz at the age of 29. She left behind an extensive diary and many letters. Passionate and unstable, Hillesum started therapy with Julius Spier, a former colleague of C.G. Jung, who helped her to recognize a presence within herself which she chose to call God. In the midst of radical evil, Hillesum still finds a meaning and purpose to God. The plurality of Hillesum's influences, whether it be through her personal encounters, family background or her interpretation of numerous readings, forbids any kind of recuperation of her writings within a specific confession or belief system. Nevertheless, this paper will show how the diversity of these influences might become a legitimate voice for a theology after Auschwitz. |
