LINGUISTIC CONSTRUCTION OF VICTIM IDENTITY IN EDITH EVA EGER'S HOLOCAUST MEMOIR: FROM POWERLESSNESS TO AGENCY
Open accessAbstract
This article investigates the linguistic mechanisms underlying the construction and transformation of victim identity in Edith Eva Eger's Holocaust memoir "The Choice: Embrace the Possible" (2017).Through systematic analysis of grammatical, lexical, and discursive features, the study examines how language reflects the psychological evolution from victimhood to agency, revealing language not merely as a descriptive medium for trauma but as a constitutive instrument of psychological recovery and identity reconstruction following catastrophic experience.The research identifies specific linguistic patterns characterizing traumatic narrative: systematic use of passive constructions, restricted modality, fragmented narrative structure, and lexical fields of fear and helplessness dominate Holocaust sections.At the cognitive level, victim identity is structured through deictic distancing, depersonalization, and temporal disorientation.Comparative analysis of Holocaust narrative and post-liberation sections demonstrates systematic linguistic shift: increased active voice usage, expanded modality, emergence of evaluative language, and metaphors of transformation.In Holocaust testimony, victim identity is constructed through grammatical erasure of agency ("I was taken," "we were stripped"), reflecting total powerlessness and lack of control over one's fate.Postliberation narrative exhibits a shift toward agentive self-positioning ("I choose," "I decide"), marking psychological recovery and restoration of subjectivity.Particular attention is devoted to the symbolic transformation of the ballerina motif: from passive objectification ("I was forced to dance for Mengele") to active self-determination ("Through dance, I found myself").The study applies Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) to analyze transitivity, modality, and appraisal systems, integrating Paul Ricoeur's narrative identity theory, Cathy Caruth's trauma linguistics, and Deborah Cameron's feminist linguistics.The article emphasizes language's role in constituting psychological reality, demonstrating that grammatical choices function as mechanisms of identity reconstruction following catastrophic experience rather than mere stylistic preferences.Research findings have implications for trauma-informed therapeutic practice, Holocaust memory studies, and interdisciplinary studies at the intersection of linguistics, psychology, and Holocaust studies.The article offers a replicable methodology for analyzing other autobiographical trauma narratives, contributing to understanding of how survivors linguistically reconstitute subjectivity after genocidal violence.The research identifies specific linguistic patterns characterizing traumatic narrative: passive constructions, restricted modality, fragmented structure, and lexical fields of fear and helplessness dominate Holocaust sections.At the cognitive level, victim identity is structured through deictic distancing, depersonalization, and temporal disorientation.Comparative analysis of Holocaust narrative and post-liberation sections demonstrates systematic linguistic shift: increased active voice usage, expanded modality, emergence of evaluative language, and metaphors of transformation.The study applies Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) to analyze transitivity, modality, and appraisal systems, integrating narrative identity theory (Paul Ricoeur), trauma linguistics (Cathy Caruth), and feminist linguistics (Deborah Cameron).The article emphasizes language's role in constituting psychological reality, demonstrating that grammatical choices function as mechanisms of identity reconstruction following catastrophic experience rather than mere stylistic preferences.Research findings have implications for trauma-informed therapeutic practice, Holocaust memory studies, and interdisciplinary studies at the intersection of linguistics, psychology, and Holocaust studies.The article offers a replicable methodology for analyzing other autobiographical trauma narratives, contributing to understanding of how survivors linguistically reconstitute selfhood after genocidal violence.

Systematic grammatical analysis of the mechanisms through which language constructs and deconstructs victim identity in Holocaust memoirs remains fragmentary, leaving a gap the study addresses.
“Most Holocaust memoir studies focus on historical, literary, or psychological aspects, while systematic grammatical analysis of mechanisms through which language constructs and deconstructs victim identity remains fragmentary.”

Percentages, sums and reported differences re-computed from the paper’s own numbers.
Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.
Rated minor: it would not touch a result — a value no result rests on, a p-value that stays on the same side of the significance level, or a conflict that is clerical, resolved elsewhere in the paper, or outside its own findings.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-11, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-11 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
