Title: Voices of the Holocaust: Online Documentary Project
Body: From http://voices.iit.edu/index.html This website deals with a set of typescripts that give first-hand accounts of horrible brutality, incredible survival, and liberation of Holocaust victims. The interviews were collected by Dr. David Boder, a faculty member and former Head of the Department of Psychology and Philosophy at the Lewis Institute of Chicago. In 1946, Dr. Boder traveled to Europe to become the first researcher to record the actual testimonies of Holocaust victims. In the near future, this site will integrate interview transcripts; reproductions of the original wire recordings; maps; essays by scholars and survivors; papers of Dr. Boder; and other information from their archives. This interactive approach will enable scholars, students, and the public to navigate through translations of the interviews, hear the voices of the survivors, and pinpoint geographic locations mentioned on the website.
