A Reflection on the Status of the Post‑camp Site on the Example of the Cable Factory in Cracow in Joanna Ringel’s Account
Referring to the theory of sites of memory and non‑sites of memory, the author of this text asks a question concerning the status of Kabelwerk – a forced labour sub‑camp located by the Cable Factory [in Polish: Fabryka Kabli] in Cracow. The researcher bases his reflections on one part of the account of Joanna Ringel – a former prisoner of this camp – which was written as a protocol of an interview. He pays attention to the character of this testimony, analysing it in the context of the term of orality. In the analytical part, the author cites the excerpts from this account and informs about the look of Kabelwerk, its living conditions, and everyday events in the camp.
Key words: site of memory, non‑site of memory, oral history, historical interview, autobiographical narration, Płaszów, Kabelwerk
