Abstract
The article covers the book of Idith Zertal, Nation and Death. Holocaust in the discourse and politics of Israel. It was published in Hebrew in 2002 under the original title HaUmah ve HaMavet, Historia, Zikaron, Politika by the Israeli publishing house Dvir. The Polish language version was not released until 2010 by the Krakow-based Universitas publishing house. The translation was prepared by Jan Maria Kłoczowski. The author of this publication points out, however, that the translation was made on the basis of the English and French versions of the text, which may be a disadvantage of the Polish publication, as often the meaning hidden between words may be transformed when translated from other languages. The text carefully discusses the individual chapters, pointing out both the advantages and disadvantages of Zertal’s work.
